Cases Presented
Video Summary of Cases Presented
Discussed were complex cases of intestinal and colorectal issues, including complex small bowel atresia, short bowel, and distal short colon with ganglionosis, and a rare combination of complete atresia and short bowel syndrome. Also discussed was the management of patients with rare conditions, the importance of telemedicine in empowering local doctors, and the challenges of performing a pull-through on a long segment Hirschsprung disease. The discussions ended with a presentation of a patient case involving a long segment Hirschsprung disease and Trisomy 21, and the decision to perform a colostomy instead of a pull-through.
