Supralevator imperforate anus with unusual associated anomalies: colonic ureteral ectopy, intraluminal calcified meconium. 1975

A H Felman, and R D Walker, and W H Donnelly, and S Gerami

This case illustrates a complex of congenital ano-rectal and renal abnormalities not previously reported. Colonic ureteral ectopy, an extremely rare occurance, was also found in this patient and an explanation of the probable embryogenesis is proposed. The roentgen pattern of intraluminal calcified meconium is also illustrated.
