Full TextAbstract
Rectovaginal fistula with atresia ani is a congenital condition that affects the anal opening and rectum by the formation of an abnormal connection between the rectum and vagina. This was diagnosed in a domestic short hair kitten. The presenting physical abnormalities included depression, dehydration, partial tail agenesis, anal atresia and a discharge of watery feces from the vaginal opening. The kitten died before surgery because of her poor general condition. Necropsy confirmed the diagnosis that was proposed after the clinical and radiographic findings.
