Popis: | Introduction The objective of this study is to determine short-term complications and evaluate long-term bowel function, lower urinary tract symptoms, and quality of life (QoL) in patients treated for Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) with transanal endorectal pull-though (TERPT) compared with healthy controls. Materials and Methods This cross-sectional case–control study included 30 HSCR patients treated with TERPT in 2006 to 2014 at Karolinska University Hospital, and 30 healthy controls matched for age and gender. Data on short-term complications were compiled from medical records and classified according to Clavien-Dindo. Bowel function and QoL were evaluated with the validated questionnaires bowel function score and KIDSCREEN-52. Lower urinary tract symptoms were evaluated through an 8-item lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) questionnaire. Results Six (20%) patients had a short-term postoperative complication according to Clavien-Dindo, with insufficient pain management being the most common complication. The median age at follow-up was 7 years (range = 4–11). Median bowel function score was significantly lower in HSCR patients than in controls, 14 versus 19 (p Conclusion According to Clavien-Dindo, short-term postoperative complications occurred in 20% of the patients. Impaired bowel function persists throughout childhood for most HSCR patients. The prevalence of LUTS and QoL is not affected in HSCR patients compared with controls. |
