Abstract
A newborn having a covered anus and two fistulas, one ano-urethral and one penile urethro-cutaneous, is presented. In spite of the resemblance of this ano-urethral fistula to an "H-type" ano-urethral fistula, which is thought to result from the failure of the division of the cloaca in the embryological period, three abnormalities seen in this case were thought to be the result of a serial event which occurred in the more distal part, the anal and the genital folds, during the embryological period. Ein Neugeborenes mit Analatresie und 2 Fisteln, eine anourethrale und eine urethrokutane penile, wird vorgestellt. Die ano-urethrale Fistel ähnelt einer ano-urethralen Fistel vom ,,H-Typ". In erster Sitzung wurde eine Cut-back- Operation vorgenommen. In 2 weiteren Sitzungen wurden die ano-urethrale und penile urethrokutane Fistel beseitigt.
