Summary

Isolated hypoganglionosis is rare and constitutes 3-5% of all congenital neurological bowel diseases. Since hypoganglionosis is associated with symptoms such as chronic constipation or pseudo-obstruction, it can be confused with Hirschprung's disease and it is important to make a differential diagnosis before treatment. Our aim in this study; In addition to sharing the rarely isolated hypoganglionosis and sigmoid volvulus in a 45-year-old male patient with mental retardation, the investigators present a systematic comprehensive review of hypoganglionosis.
