Contemporary surgical management of Hirschsprung's disease (HD) has evolved toward resection and reconstruction earlier in life. The introduction and miniaturization of laparoscopic instrumentation currently permits the application of this approach to the treatment of HD in the neonate. The authors' experience with this technique demonstrates several potential advantages over the "classical" two-stage operation.

D006627 Hirschsprung Disease Congenital MEGACOLON resulting from the absence of ganglion cells (aganglionosis) in a distal segment of the LARGE INTESTINE. The aganglionic segment is permanently contracted thus causing dilatation proximal to it. In most cases, the aganglionic segment is within the RECTUM and SIGMOID COLON.
