Abstract
Summary In dealing with anorectal disease of childhood, it must be remembered that the pathogenesis is similar to that of the adult: Careful examination, including endoscopy, is necessary to establish a diagnosis, and can easily be accomplished, even in the neonate. Treatment of anal fissures, hemorrhoids, fistulas and/or rectal abscesses in children parallels that of the same diseases in the adult.Keywords
