Abstract
Skip segment Hirschsprung's disease is a condition where an area of normally ganglionated intestine is interspersed proximally and distally by aganglionic segments. The occurrence of skip segment has no clear embryological explanation, contrary to the present concept of failure of cranio-caudal migration of neural crest-derived cells in Hirschsprung's disease. Only 25 case reports have been published in literature so far and this is possibly the first to be reported from Asia. We report one such case with novel surgical management.
