Swenson-like pull-through for treatment of the rare association between Hirschsprung’s disease and anorectal malformation

This case series underscores the critical importance of considering HD in patients with ARM who present with persistent, atypical gastrointestinal symptoms post-surgical repair of their ARM. Preservation of the aganglionic neoanal canal with a subsequent Swenson pull-through appeared beneficial to achieve good postoperative continence.
