Hirschsprung's Diease: 수술 후 치료와 문제점

Postoperative Problems of Hirshsprung's Disease and It's Management

Since Swenson and Bill established the treatment principles of Hirshsprung's disease in 1948, there have been significant advances in the management of this disease. During the last decade, one-stage correction of Hirshsprung's disease without colostomy and primary laparoscopic pull-through procedure became popular with recent advances in the technology and refinement of the equipments. But the outcomes for Hirshsprung's disease are not always successful, and long-term follow-up isessential. Most children after corrective surgery show significant improvement in respect to fecal continence and constipation, that may not be apparent until late adolescence. The purpose of this study was to review the postoperative problems of Hirschsprung's disease and it's management.
