Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 3
Abstract
Objectives: On completion of this article, the reader should be able to summarize the management of anorectal trauma. Accidental blunt and penetrating injuries to the anorectum are uncommon events. The relative protection offered by the rectum's position in the bony pelvis makes blunt injuries particularly uncommon. Excluding iatrogenic, sex-related, and foreign body injuries, the most common injury is a result of a bull gore injury occurring commonly during the month of January on the occasion of ‘jallikattu’ in this part of the country- a native animal game of ox taming.; Traumatic anal sphincter injury can be from impalement or other penetrating injury, or blunt trauma, including crush injury. High impact and high momentum injuries are often associated with pelvic fracture and urinary bladder injury . urethral injuries are also to be considered in cases of perineal injuries. The evaluation and management of anorecta and perineall trauma are reviewed here.
