Complete tubular colonic duplication ending in a common channel as a recto vestibular fistula: A case report and literature review of management options

Abstract

Colon duplication (CD) is a rare congenital abnormality with varied presentations. We present a neonatal case with complete tubular CD terminating uniquely as a common channel, a single rectovestibular fistula. We summarize surgical management options in CD as well as factors that will help to decide the best surgical treatment in individual cases.
