Abstract:
Hirschsprung's disease is one of the common est causes of neonatal intestinal obstruction. Despite progress in the identification of genetic mutations, the pathogenesis of Hirschsprug's disease is not completely resolved. The management consists of septic complications of treatment, and a variable "pull-through" procedure, immediately or at a later date. Long-term follow-up is an important component of patient care.
