Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the details of laparoscopic-assisted reoperative surgery for Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) with overflow fecal incontinence, and to retrospectively compare laparoscopic-assisted surgery with transabdominal pull-through surgery.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with HSCR with overflow fecal incontinence after the initial surgery in our center between January 2002 and December 2018. Pre-operative, peri-operative, and post-operative data were recorded for statistical analysis.Results: Thirty patients with overflow fecal incontinence after initial megacolon surgery [17 who underwent transanal pull-through (TA-PT) and 13 who underwent laparoscopic-assisted pull-through (LA-PT)] required a secondary surgery [reoperation with LA-PT (LAR-PT) (n = 16) or reoperation with transabdominal pull-through (TR-PT) (n = 14)]. Indications for reoperation were residual aganglionosis (RA) (7/30, 23.3%) or transition zone pathology (TZP) (23/17, 76.7%). Blood loss was significantly decreased in the LAR-PT group (75 ± 29.2 ml) compared to the TR-PT group (190 ± 51.4 ml) (P = 0.001). The length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the LAR-PT group (10 ± 1.5 days) than that in the TR-PT group (13 ± 2.4 days). No significant differences were found between two groups in surgical methods, defecation function score, or post-operative complications except for wound infection (LAR-PT vs. TR-PT 0 vs. 28.6%, P < 0.05).Conclusions: It is necessary to make a comprehensive analysis of the causes of fecal incontinence after HSCR surgery and make an accurate judgment using appropriate methods. If a reoperation was inevitable for patients with overflow fecal incontinence due to RA or TZP, a comprehensive evaluation prior to the operation is required to maximize the benefit from reoperation. Although laparoscopic reoperation with heart-shaped anastomosis was safe and feasible for patients with failed initial Soave technique, unnecessary reoperation should be avoided as much as possible.

Introduction Patients after pull-through operation for Hirschsprung's disease (HD) are at high risk of defecation disorders. This study aimed at investigating their long-term outcomes and quality of life (QoL) in comparison with controls. Patients and Methods Patients older than 5 years operated on for HD were interviewed to complete detailed questionnaires on bowel function. Patients without neurologic impairment were enrolled in a QoL survey to compare with controls matched for sex and age and selected randomly from the general population using sampling set in a ratio of four controls to one case of HD. Results In total, 53 operated patients were enrolled. Mean age of the patients was 16 ± 8 years, with 68% boys. Rectosigmoid aganglionosis was the most seen form of HD in 38 (72%) cases. Open Soave was performed in 40 (75.5%) cases, and minimally invasive surgery Soave (MIS Soave) in 13 (24.5%) cases. At investigation, prevalence of fecal incontinence and constipation were 22.6 and 13.2%, respectively. Regarding QoL survey, 45 patients and 180 controls were enrolled, excluding 8 patients with neurologic impairment. Thirty-seven (82.2%) patients were classified as having a good QoL (score ≥ 9 points); whereas six had a fair QoL (5–8 points) and two had a poor QoL (< 5 points). QoL score in the cases and the controls were 10.2 ± 2.5 and 11.9 ± 0.4 points, respectively. Long aganglionosis form of HD was significantly associated with a low QoL (score < 8 points), adjusted odds ratio = 9, 95% confidence interval [1.3; 64.1] (p < 0.05). In subscales analyses, the prevalence of each dimension including fecal continence, school absenteeism, unhappiness or anxiety, food restriction, and peer rejection was significantly higher in operated patients than in controls (p <0.001). Conclusion Although the QoL of patients operated on for HD in general was with good outcomes, fecal incontinence and constipation still are problematic issues and challenges in a high percentage of patients. Therefore, a long-term and multidisciplinary follow-up is essentially required for these patients.

Non bleeding during the operation, no conversion to open surgery, no anastomotic fistula. Follow – up postoperative from 3 months to 4 years peri-anal: infection 6 patients (18,75%), enterocolitis 8 patients (25%), fecal incontinence 5 patients (15,62%), constipation 1 patient (4,45%). Functional defecation assessement: very good 68,75; good 21,88; average 9,37%. No re- operation. Conclusion: Single stage laparoscopic assisted endorectal colon pull- through for Hirschsprung's disease in children under 6 month old is safe with good functional defecation assessement.

Abstract Introduction The study aimed to compare 1-year outcomes for primary versus multiple-staged (three operations with colostomy) repairs in Hirschsprung's disease (HD). Materials and Methods Retrospective analysis of a large national administrative database (Hospital Episode Statistics) including all the neonates born with HD in England between 2003 and 2015. Main outcomes were: 1-year mortality, postoperative readmissions, and reoperations. Secondary outcomes: cumulative length of hospital stay (cLOS) and hospital volume–outcome relationship. Results A total of 1,333 neonates with HD were treated in 21 specialist pediatric surgical centers; 874 (65.5%) patients had a primary repair for HD. One-year mortality was 2.8%. The overall readmission rate was 70.2%, with a significant difference between primary and multiple-staged repair (79.9 vs. 90.1%, p < 0.01). There was no difference in reoperation. Primary pull-through was associated with a significantly lower probability of postoperative readmission (odds ratio [OR] = 0.08, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.06–0.11, p < 0.001) and cLOS (OR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.28–0.52, p < 0.001) compared with multiple-staged repair. There were no significant difference in outcomes between patients treated in low-volume (<37 cases/year) and high-volume (> 55 cases/year) specialist centers. Conclusion Whenever clinically indicated, primary repair should be used in HD as this is associated with fewer readmissions and shorter time spent in the hospital.
