The average surgeon called upon to handle a particular case of anorectal malformation is caught between the complexities of investigative research and the controversies in management policy. This study aims to clear the confusion. Professor Chatterjee has treated over 1200 patients for over four decades. The book contains his own viewpoints and describes in detail the operative procedures for each important anomaly with the help of over 300 photographs, X-rays and diagrams. One of the main strengths of the book lies in its successfully bringing out the human dimension of an unfortunate medical puzzle.
