Segmental dilatation of the colon is a rare lesion. A patient with this lesion complicated by chronic constipation from birth is described. Although the clinical picture and radiographic studies are indistinguishable from Hirschsprung's disease, anorectal manometric studies and a rectal mucosal biopsy are of paramount importance for the diagnosis of this condition. This disease can be cured by resection of the dilated segment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
