Hirschsprung's disease is a congenital disorder caused by the absence of ganglion cells in parts of the colon, which prevents normal nerve function. It most commonly involves the rectum and sigmoid colon. Affected infants experience constipation or intestinal obstruction after birth. Diagnosis involves rectal biopsy and imaging tests. Treatment involves surgically removing the affected part of the colon and reconnecting the healthy ends, which often cures the condition. Complications can include infection, leakage at the connection site, or ongoing constipation issues.

Hirschsprungs disease, I n newborn ; delayed pssage of meconium ,abdominal distension , repeated vomiting,constipation or gas, diarrhoea,in older children chronic constipation, abdominal distension, failure to thrive, also called as Aganglionic megacolon occures due to absence of ganglion cells in myeneteric and submucosal lpexus.Results in failure in relaxation of the internal anus sphincture and affected bowel
Hirschsprung disease is a developmental disorder of the enteric nervous system that is characterized by the absence of ganglion cells in the myenteric and submucosal plexuses of the distal intestine.
Because these cells are responsible for normal peristalsis, patients with Hirschsprung disease present with functional intestinal obstruction at the level of aganglionosis.
Some patients present later in childhood, or even during adulthood, with chronic constipation.
This is most common among breast-fed infants, who typically develop constipation around the time of weaning.
Although most children who present after the neonatal period have short-segment disease, this history may also be found in those with longer segment or even total colonic involvement, particularly if the child has been exclusively breast-fed.
The etiology of HAEC is controversial.
The most common theory is that stasis caused by functional obstruction due to the aganglionic bowel permits bacterial overgrowth with secondary infection.
Infectious agents such as Clostridium difficile or Rotavirus have been postulated as being causative, but there are few data to support a specific pathogen.
Can occur in either pre or post operative period (sometimes both)
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. • Hirschsprung’s disease is the most common cause of lower
intestinal obstruction in neonates.
• Hirschsprung’s disease (aganglionic megacolon) is a
congenital anomaly caused by migratory failure of neural
crest cells leading to abnormal innervations of the bowel.
• The defect begins in the internal anal sphincter and
extends proximally for a variable length of gut
INTRODUCTION
3. INCIDENCE: 15000 live birth newborn
70-80% is boys. (M / F. 4: 1 )
Less common in blacks.
EPIDEMIOLOGY
4. The fundamental pathology in HD is the absence of ganglion
cells in the submucosal and intermuscular nerve plexuses and is
associated with an increase in the nerve fibers in the affected
segment .
That aganglionic segment usually involves the terminal intestine,
i.e. the rectum or rectosigmoid. The aganglionic segment may,
however, include the entire large bowel and even small bowel..
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
5. The colon proximal to the aganglionic segment, in an effort
to overcome the partial obstruction, becomes distended
and its wall markedly thickened because of muscle
hypertrophy
The degree of hypertrophy and dilatation depends upon
the duration and degree of obstruction and thus, indirectly
to the age of the patient.
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
6. 1. Congenital : This type is the commonest one .
Etiology of the disease is still unknown.but Genetic factors are now
identified.
10% of cases have familial history, especially those with long
segment disease.
2. Acquired :
Degeneration of the ganglions may occur due to:
-Vascular causes like after pullthrough procedure due to
ischemia & tension.
- Non vascular causes like
Trypanosoma (chaga's disease).
Vit B1 def.
Chronic infection ( TB.).
TYPES
7. HD is usually a solitary anomaly in a full term, otherwise healthy infant
Associated anomalies do occur in nearly 20% of cases
urogenital system (11%)
cardiovascular system (6%)
gastrointestinal system (6%),
with 8% having various other malformations
Prematurity is reported in as many as 10% of those children with HD
Trisomy 21 occurs in approximately 5% of cases
ASSOCIATED ANOMALY
8. 1. Failure to pass meconium in the
1st 24h of life
98% of neonates pass meconium in the first 24 hours of
age.. Any newborn who fails to pass meconium in the first
24-48 hours of life should be evaluated for possible
Hirschsprung's disease.
2. Neonatal Intestinal obstruction
symptoms include bilious vomiting, abdominal distension
and refusal to feed.
3. Recurrent Enterocolitis
mainly in the 1st three months of life.
CLINICAL FEATURES
9. 4. TOXIC MEGACOLON :
Fever.
Abdominal distension.
Bile stained vomitous.
Explosive diarrhoea.
Dehydration.
Shock.
5. Spontanous perforation occurs in 3%,specially if
long segment aganglionosis.
6. Chronic constipation patients may have chronic
constipation in response to changes in feeding.
And may have Growth retardation. Multiple fecal
masses on abdominal examination.

14. Rectal biopsy :
Rectal biopsy is the definitive diagnostic
test and demonstrates absence of
ganglion cells, nerve hypertrophy and
stains indicating increased
acetylcholinesterase activity.
suction mucosal biopsy (at different
levels ). Can be done without anesthesia
full thickness biopsy is done under general
anesthesia.
DIAGNOSIS
15. Electromanometry :
not useful in neonate
excellent screening tool in infant &
children .
The classic finding is the absence of
the recto anal inhibitory reflex when
the rectum is distended.
A balloon is inflated in the rectum to
measure pressure in the area
UltraSonography: for associated anomalies
DIAGNOSIS
17. Chronic constipation :
laxative
saline enema.
Work up to establish the diagnosis
then the definitive treatment will be planned
Open surgery :
There are many surgical options for Pull-through
operation. All aiming at resection of aganglionic segment
and anastomosing the two normal ganglionic ends. They
give excellent result in 90%.
