Abstract

Hirschsprung’s disease has been one of the main disorders in pediatric surgical patients for a long time. The essence of treatment for Hirschsprung’s disease is surgery. The classic operation was an abdominoperineal pull-through in two or three stages, in which patients initially underwent a diverting colostomy or enterostomy, and a definitive operation performed later. Various procedures have been developed to perform a definitive operation for Hirschsprung’s disease including the Swenson procedure ([1]), the Rehbein procedure [2], the Duhamel procedure [3], and the Soave procedure [4].
