The poor little shit.
Producing waste since 1967

As you say MSS - and congratulations on your 400 - if I may use cricketing parlance - made in very quick time!

My stepson's friend was born without a butthole.
His mother said that they operated on him as an infant and made him a poopchute; he is now a normal kid as far as I know.

At least they don't have to worry about the baby growing up to be a politician if she doesn't have a butthole to talk out of in the first place...

Good one WP!! But I feel you could say the same about one or two other professions ..... ! Perhaps we'd better avoid risking upsetting more of our friends on the site and not go there!

Very young children heal really well, and quickly, from surgeries. I've read about a couple of surgical procedures that can be done while the baby is still in mama's belly. The kids are often born without any scars: no evidence that any surgery even occurred.

Thanks Hammy!!!
FP, I had no idea they could do that kind of surgery...interesting.

That's one less asshole in the world.

Seriously, I hope the doctors can do something so the kid doesn't have a colostomy all her life.

Don't fret, H1, you more than make up for the missing....

When they gave this kid a new butthole, doniker, I wonder if it ended up working well. How did they get a sphincter muscle in there? Wouldn't stuff just run out without a spincter muscle?

i was born with the same thing how was it caused?

The condition is called "imperforate anus," and it used to be one of the things a doctor looked for immediately when a baby was born. The doctor (this is hearsay, mind you, but I've heard it from medical people) gives the baby's bottom a quick spank to start it crying, which assures a sudden intake of breath so it starts breathing. In almost the same motion, the doctor can stick a finger up the anus to make sure it's there and goes through. If not, they operate IMMEDIATELY. It is actually a life-threatening condition not to have a working anus. I don't know how common it is, but my impression is that it's quite rare. I think the sphincter muscles are there, but flesh grew across the hole. Not good.

my neice is 1 week old now,she was born without an anus and almost died because the hospital didnt catch it untill they were sending her home.despite my sister asking why she wouldnt poop and why her legs and feet were purple.they said it wasnt unnormal and pushed her concerns away.she has now had to go 5 days without food so the toxins and food could empty out,and still has months of surgery.all because the nurse who cleand her afterbirth and the nursery didnt notice she was missing a but hole.how can a traind staff who does the same thing for every baby miss that?

This gives 'tight-ass' an entirely new meaning!

I've heard many stories of people being born with missing vital components, but never have I heard of a baby born bereft of a butthole!

That reminds me of an asshole joke, but to not derail, I will post in the joke thread.

I refer back to my earlier comment about imperforate anus. Has the practice of medicine changed so much that doctors (or nurses) no longer check for it? If so, any of you who become parents, check for it yourselves. The condition is dangerous, even fatal, if not treated (operated on) immediately.

I had a friend who was born with the exact opposite problem, he was all butthole.

A good friend of mine was actually born without an asshole! I dont understand how her "bathroom doings" work now...

Maybe we could combine this post with CT's post about pork bungs in the forums. We could possibly have a medical breakthrough.

How did healthy get a lame comment?

If they made a rectum surgically, would it grow normally? I know healed skin is pretty strong, once it knits itself together. But stretch factor is a...factor. COULD you make an artificial rectum? Complete with anus? I'm thinking it wouldn't work out.

And how was the bad poo coming out of her vag? Unless thats what this 'imperforate anus'n is. Split itself open on the inside because there's no exit.

If I had to have an asshole constructed I would request that I be fitted with a hole that I could change tips on, much like a pastry bag.
