ERN eUROGEN Webinar 53: Hirschsprung disease , basic principles of pathology

This webinar was presented on Wednesday 28 September 2022 by Dr. Roxana Rassouli-Kirchmeier from the Amalia Children’s Hospital in Nijmegen and Dr. Thomas Menter from the Institute of Medical Genetics and Pathology at University Hospital Basel. It is aimed at healthcare professionals. In this webinar, the pathophysiology of Hirschsprung disease is discussed in order to provide a deeper inside and understanding of the mechanisms of the disease. The presenters discuss their approach to an adequate work-up of biopsies taken to confirm or rule out this diagnosis. This approach is based on enzyme-histochemistry in order to evaluate the presence of neurons of the enteric nerve system and to evaluate the parasympathetic innervation. In addition, they demonstrate the respective findings by performing live microscopy of illustrative cases The ARM webinar series covers all aspects of paediatric colorectal surgery, in particular (congenital) anorectal malformations.
