dc.description.abstractMURCS association is rare, first described by Duncan in 1979, including nonrandom association of Mullerian duct aplasia or hypoplasia (MU), renal agenesis or ectopy (R), and cervicothoracic somite dysplasia. A 5-year-old girl was admitted to the clinic with a complaint of anteriorly located anus. Physical and radiologic examination of the patient found MURCS association with anorectal malformation (ARM) of rectovestibular-type fistula. She had multiple vertebral anomalies, left renal agenesis, vaginal and uterine agenesia, with a normal female 46,XX karyotype. Posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) and sigmoid loop vaginal reconstruction was performed as a one-stage operation for the treatment of vaginal agenesis and ARM, There were no complications in the postoperative period. This combined one-stage operation can be used easily in the treatment of some components of the MURCS association such as vaginal agenesis and ARM as an associated anomaly.
