Hirschsprung disease is a congenital disorder affecting the large intestine (colon), causing constipation with the inability to pass stool. It is a result of ganglion cells (nerve cells) absence in parts of the bowel, which are necessary for normal contractions and relaxations of the bowel muscles.
HIRSCHSPRUNG’S DISEASE CAUSES
Hirschsprung disease is due to the improper migration of neural crest cells during fetal development. These cells give rise to the enteric nervous system, which is responsible for governing the muscle movements of the bowel. In many cases, the cause remains unknown; however, it has been associated with genetic mutations and familial inheritance in many cases.
