متن کاملTotal Colonic Aganglionosis: Reappraisal of Contrast Enema Study
Total colonic aganglionosis (TCA) is a rare form of Hirschsprung disease (HD). It is difficult to be diagnosed on contrast enema because the radiographic findings are variable. The study aims to re-evaluate the contrast enema findings of TCA. From 2001 to 2009, 14 patients (11 males, 3 females; ages from 1 day to 6 months) with pathologically proven TCA were reviewed for demographic features, c...
متن کاملThe Value of Urgent Barium Enema and Computed Tomography in Acute Malignant Colonic Obstruction: Is Urgent Barium Enema Still Necessary?
