Urethroplasty and vaginoplasty by a single small bowel interposition graft: a novel technique for cloacal reconstruction.

Despite the advances in surgical management of anorectal malformations, repair of cloacal malformations remains a challenging condition for many pediatric surgeons. Posterior cloaca is present where urogenital sinus deviates posteriorly to form a cloaca with rectum. Often, achieving adequate urethral and vaginal length can be challenging. We describe a novel technique where a loop of small bowel on a single mesenteric blood supply could be constructed in 2 functional tubular structures: one for urethral and the other for vaginal replacement.
