Abstract
Complex cloacal malformations are associated with a wide spectrum of anatomic defects involving the gastrointestinal, urinary, and gynecologic tracts; the variety and complexity of these defects complicate surgical planning and repair. Rotational fluoroscopy with 3-D reconstruction provides precise anatomic detail, particularly regarding length of the common channel, appearance/location of the vagina(s) and bladder, which facilitates surgical planning and determination of prognosis.
