Abstract
Anorectal malformations (ARM) in females are identified by abnormal location of the anal opening. Management is guided by clinical examination to find the number of perineal openings. Two openings in the perineum of a female may be seen in cases of imperforate anus without fistula, vaginal agenesis with vestibular fistula or imperforate anus with recto-vaginal fistula (RVF). We present a case series of ARM with RVF and discuss their diagnosis and management.
