Hirschsprung's Disease: Likelihood Ratios
Introduction: Hirschsprung's disease, technically congenital aganglionic megacolon, results from incomplete migration of the neural crest precursor cells that are the progenitors of the ganglion cells that innervate the large intestine. Thus, this disease is manifested by lack of intestinal motility distal to a certain point.
