Neurogastroenterol Motil . 2016 Jun; 28(10):1494-507. PMID: 27278627
Background: In Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), the absence of myenteric neural ganglia in the distal bowel prevents motility and thereby causes functional intestinal obstruction. Although surgical resection of the aganglionic segment...

Clin Genet . 2012 Oct; 83(1):15-22. PMID: 23043324
Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR), also known as aganglionic megacolon, derives from a congenital malformation of the enteric nervous system (ENS). It displays an incidence of 1 in 5000 live births with...
