Antenatal rectal perforation presenting in the neonate.

Lakshmi Sundararajan1, David Patel, Girish Jawaheer.   

Abstract

Perforation of the rectum in the antenatal period is extremely rare. Three cases have been reported worldwide. Its aetiology and pathophysiology are poorly understood. Rapid recognition by its classical signs is mandatory as delay in diagnosis leads to serious morbidity. We report a fourth case, and make recommendations regarding management.
