From 1991 to 2001, we performed 5 re-operations with limited posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) for low imperforate anus in girls who had anteriorly located anus after primary surgery. Four girls were diagnosed with anocutaneous fistula and one girl with anovestivular fistula. Primary operations were one cutback anoplasty and four anal transplantation. None of them underwent colostomies before re-operation with the limited PSARP. The sphincter muscle was cut through a median perineal skin incision and then the rectum was placed at the center of the complex muscles. This limited PSARP could give good anal function and satisfactory cosmetic appearanc
