Congenital Pouch Colon: A Case Report
Abstract
Congenital pouch colon (CPC) is a rare condition in which a variable length of colon is converted into a pouch which communicates with the urogenital tract. We report the antenatal sonographic findings of a boy found to have CPC type I postnatally, which was suspected to be an anorectal malformation in utero. This entity has been described in the literature mainly from the Indian subcontinent. Therefore, it is an important differential diagnosis to be kept in mind in fetuses with abnormal large bowel pattern.
