Abstract
Occasionally Hirschsprung's disease is misdiagnosed until the patient reaches adolescence. The disease of these young people may present technical problems not encountered in the neonate. I describe three such patients, ages 10, 13, and 19 years, who were managed successfully by slightly different surgical methods.Keywords
