Abstract

A case of acquired neurogenic megacolon in a child is reported. The condition resulted after a Soave endorectal pull-through procedure for Hirschsprung's disease and was secondary to hypoganglionosis which developed in the pulled-through segment. The clinical, radiological, and pathologic features as well as the successful surgical management of this case are described.
