Detailed description

Hirschsprung,s disease (HD) is a relatively common cause of intestinal obstruction in the newborn\[1,2\], The main goal in the treatment of patients with Hirschsprung,s disease is to resect the aganglionic segment and pull down the Normo-ganglionic bowel\[3\]. With the introduction of minimally invasive surgery, classic pull-through techniques were modified and improved with laparoscopy, because of the obvious advantages of laparoscopic-assisted pull-through operations in form of reduced pain and improved cosmoses this approach has gained much popularity\[4,5\].
