Background/Purpose: During a 1-stage transanal endorectal pull through (OS-TERP) for Hirschsprung's disease (HD), dilated ganglionic segment (DGS) may pose a problem during coloanal anastomosis. Apart from the anorectal problems occurring after the HD operations, lower urinary tract problems may also be encountered. The anorectal and lower urinary tract system functions of the patients that underwent OS-TERP in the presence of DGS were evaluated.
