Summary

This study looked at 20 children with Hirschsprung disease, a condition where part of the bowel lacks nerve cells, causing severe constipation. Researchers compared two surgical methods—Swenson and Soave—to see which one had shorter operation time and better daily bowel movement results. The goal was to find the safest and most effective way to remove the diseased bowel and connect healthy bowel to the anus.
