MEGACOLON SYNDROME OIN CHILDREN

Abstract

In children suffering from chronic constipation, regular or occasional abdominal rest may be observed. When an X-ray image is obtained by sending contrast agents, it can be seen that the colon distal parts expand to different degrees.This syndrome usually manifests itself in an anomaly of the development of the anorectal sphere, a whitish atresia of the rectum,as well as mechanical barriers(scars, tumors) acquired in life; as an independent nosological unit of Girshprung's disease.
