Baby Born With Sealed Anus In Plateau State

A baby boy with this condition  has been born in
Pankshin LGA, Plateau state.
Sources say he was born on the 30th of April. His
mother reportedly noticed that her baby’s tummy kept
swelling up so she rushed him to the town hospital in
Pankshin. They were referred to Plateau state
Specialist Hospital where doctors discovered that the baby had Imperforate Anus meaning the
baby’s anus was sealed and that he cannot
defecate.
Imperforate anus is a birth defect that happens while
your baby is still growing. This defect means that your
baby has an improperly developed anus. According to
the Cincinnati Childrens Hospital, about 1 out of every
5,000 babies
has an imperforate anus. It occurs more
often in boys than girls. The rectum, bladder, and
vagina of a female baby with an imperforate anus
typically share one large opening. This opening is
called a cloaca.
The president of Plateau state hospital Dr. Philemon
Golwa said the poor boy needs surgery, one his equally
poor parents can’t afford.
This is a very serious condition that requires immediate
treatment. Most babies will need surgery to repair the
defect. The outlook following surgery is very positive.
