ETHOPATOGENESIS AND DIAGNOSIS METHODS IN HIRSCHSPRUNG'S DISEASE

Hirschsprung's Disease (111-1) is functional intestinal obstruction with still blurred etiology. Although cases of this disease were published before, the Danish pediatrician Hirschspring said in 1886, with clinical and autopsy findings of the two cases he followed, that the disease may be a congenital malformation. For this reason, the disease was named after him in the following years.
