Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of simple transanal colon pull-through operation in the management of Hirschsprung's disease(HD) in children. Methods 57 case of HD were performed by transanal macrocolon pull-through operation from July 2001 to May 2002. Results 53 cases underwent simple transanal colon pull-through operation successfully. The mean operative time was 1.5h (1h~2h) and blood loss was 5ml~10ml. Dejection and food taking recovered at the first day after operation in 51 patients; dejection recovered at the third day after operation in 2 patients. 4 patients with long segmental macrocolon, implicated in transverse colon, were operated on by laparoscope-assited surgery, and they began to defecate and take food in 2d~3d postoperatively. The mean operative time was 3h(2h~3.5h). 57 cases had been followed up for (2~9)months, and their dejection function recovered well. Conclusions It is feasible to treat HD in children through simple transanal colon pull-through operation. The method has the advantages of minimal invasion, less bleeding, quicker recovery, shorter hospital stay and good recovery of dejection function.
