Rehbein’s Procedure (Deep Anterior Resection)

  • Chapter
Hirschsprung's Disease and Allied Disorders

Abstract

Classical Hirschsprung’s disease is characterized by two phenomena: the narrow segment and the decreased opening ability or achalasia of the internal sphincter. Any surgical method of treatment for Hirschsprung’s disease must thus fulfill two criteria:

1. Removal of the aganglionic narrow segment, including the dilated sigmoid.

2. Elimination of the achalasia (defective opening) of the internal anal sphincter.
