Functional outcome after Swenson's operation for Hirshsprung's disease.

Background/aim: Hirschsprung's disease (HD) is one of the most common causes resulting in lower intestinal obstruction in children with atypical clinical symptoms and inconspicuous morphological findings by barium enema X-ray. Recently, this situation has been largely ameliorated by improvement of instrument for measurement of anorectal pressure. By now, anorectal manometry has been regarded as a routine means for functional assessment and diagnosis of HD.
