Hirschprung's Disease and Thoracic Limb Amputation by Amniotic Bands in a Patient With Down Syndrome: A Case Report

Down syndrome is a risk factor for Hirschsprung's disease. However, the amniotic band sequence does not directly correlate. We present a patient with Down syndrome and associated Hirschsprung's disease, who exhibited findings consistent with amniotic band sequence. This represents the first description of these three conditions in a single patient.

Abstract

Down syndrome is a risk factor for Hirschsprung's disease. However, the amniotic band sequence does not directly correlate. We present a patient with Down syndrome and associated Hirschsprung's disease, who exhibited findings consistent with amniotic band sequence. This represents the first description of these three conditions in a single patient.
