Abstract
Surgery to correct anorectal malformations is only one of the stages in the complex treatment of children with malformations of the anorectal area. The optimal choice and technique of surgical correction of the defect and the absence of postoperative complications will certainly contribute to obtaining good functional results. Nevertheless, the final result is largely determined by the quality of rehabilitation measures in the immediate and long-term postoperative period. Medical rehabilitation is aimed at normalizing the passage of feces and the tone of the rectal sphincter and pelvic floor muscles, restoring the defecation reflex, and reducing astheno-vegetative disorders. Rehabilitation measures should be carried out continuously until the newly formed rectum reaches normal function.
