OMIA 000083-9823 : Atresia ani in Sus scrofa

In other species: domestic cat , cattle , goat , sheep , alpaca , llama

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: yes

Cross-species summary: Congenital absence of the anus, causing a buildup of faeces and consequent distension of the abdomen.

Species-specific description: A large segregation analysis of data on German pigs, by Stigler et al. (1991, 1992), showed that this disorder is definitely familial, but is also definitely not due to a single gene.
