What are the Postoperative Care and Long-term Outcomes?
Postoperative care is crucial for recovery and includes pain management, wound care, and monitoring for complications such as infection or stricture. Long-term follow-up is essential to assess bowel function, manage constipation, and monitor for potential complications such as incontinence or recurrent fistulas. With appropriate surgical intervention and follow-up, many children with ARMs can achieve good bowel function and quality of life.
