摘要
This case series describes a novel method for showing the preoperative anatomy of children with anorectal malformations using ultrasound contrast, which we have termed "contrast-enhanced colosonography (ceCS)." Six patients with anorectal malformations without a perineal fistula were studied both by fluoroscopic distal colostography and ceCS, and their results were confirmed surgically. Contrast-enhanced CS precisely showed the complex anatomic relationships in all cases. Compared to traditional fluoroscopic studies, ceCS has the benefit of no associated ionizing radiation and thus is safer for children.
