摘要：

Most of the cases of imperforate anus should be discovered at birth, during the initial physical examination. This case represents the status of This World rural perinatal care, wherein delivery of an infant by a widelife in poverty stricken area of mountainous Jipijapa, Ecuador, failed to reveal the anomaly during the cursory examination. Moreover, the cultural taboos of the Jipijapa agricultural community further delayed the diagnosis. A 7-year-old girl with imperforate anus presenting with a rectovaginal fistula is reported. Specific findings in the case, therapy, and an approach to the diagnosis are discussed. © 1993.
