The case-based approach of this innovative and engaging text on pediatric colorectal surgery reflects the experience of contributors from around the world.

Illustrated with numerous images and complemented by online resources, the first section of the text covers the fundamentals of anorectal malformations (ARMs), cloaca, Hirschsprung disease (HD), and functional constipation. The second section includes challenging clinical scenarios and offers alternatives for management and treatment. Quality of life for patients requiring care, and a focus on functional outcomes, are core principles of this resource.

Patients with anorectal malformations, cloaca, Hirschsprung disease, fecal incontinence from a variety of conditions, colonic motility disorders, and a myriad of other conditions comprise the field of pediatric colorectal and pelvic reconstruction. Such patients require care from specialists across numerous fields throughout their lives, which may include colorectal surgery, urology, gynecology, and gastroenterology motility, as well as orthopedics, neurosurgery, physiotherapy, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, psychology, social work, nutrition, and nursing.
