Summary

Compare the functional and surgical outcomes of laparoscopic-assisted Swenson-like (LASwL) and laparoscopic-assisted Soave (LASo) pull through in children with HD.

Conditions

  • Hirschsprung Disease

Interventions

PROCEDURE

laparoscopic-assisted Swenson-like (LASwL)

Following port placement, laparoscopic exploration was performed to evaluate the spastic colonic segment and transitional zone. An aperture was created in the sigmoid mesentery, and the sigmoid colon was mobilized. The proximal ganglionic bowel was mobilized while preserving the marginal arcades. The peritoneal reflection was sharply incised to facilitate dissection and mobilization of the aganglionic rectum. The procedure diverged between the two groups at this juncture: LASwl group: The rectum below the peritoneal reflection was dissected circumferentially up to a level 2 cm above the anal verge . LASo group: The rectum below the peritoneal reflection was minimally mobilized (within 1 cm of the peritoneal reflection). Following laparoscopic dissection, the ports were left in situ, and the position was adjusted for transanal dissection of the remaining rectum.

PROCEDURE

laparoscopic-assisted Soave (LASo)

Transanal endorectal procedure was conducted according to the standard technique described by De la Torre-Mondragon and Ortega-Salgado \[12\]. A circular incision was made in the mucosa, and mucosectomy was performed. The muscle sleeve was cut, connecting the two dissection planes circularly . After keeping the muscular cuff as short as possible, a longitudinal incision was made posteriorly. Then, the bowel was extracted, and the anastomosis was performed as described above.
