Abstract
Total colonic aganglionosis (TCA) occurs in 3% to 12% of Hirschsprung’s disease patients. Although numerous surgical techniques have been utilized for the treatment of these patients, little information is available regarding optimal surgical management of their frequent complications or failured procedures. The ileoanal S pouch (IASP) technique has been utilized in the treatment of children with familial adenomatous polyposis and ulcerative colitis. The authors present the results of salvage IASP in 3 TCA patients who had poor results after total colectomy and Soave pull-through.
