Letter to the Editor Regarding “Characteristics of pelvic anatomy predict need for vaginal replacement during initial reconstruction of cloacal malformations”

We read with great interest the recent article by Evans et al., “Characteristics of pelvic anatomy predict need for vaginal replacement during initial reconstruction of cloacal malformations.” [1]. The authors are to be commended for their work, providing the largest cohort to date and robust statistical validation that common channel (CC) length ≥3.5 cm and vaginal hypoplasia are powerful independent predictors of vaginal replacement (VR).
