Transanal pullthrough for Hirschsprung disease: matched case-control comparison of Soave and Swenson techniques.
[hirschsprung disease]
Both
the
Swenson
and
the
Soave
procedures
have
been
adapted
to
a
transanal
approach
.
The
purpose
of
this
study
was
to
compare
outcomes
following
the
transanal
Swenson
and
Soave
procedures
using
a
matched
case
control
analysis
.
A
retrospective
chart
review
was
performed
to
identify
all
transanal
Soave
and
Swenson
pullthroughs
done
at
2
tertiary
care
children
's
hospitals
between
2000
and
2010
.
Patients
were
matched
for
gestational
age
,
mean
weight
at
time
of
the
operation
,
level
of
aganglionosis
,
and
presence
of
co
-morbidities
.
Student
's
t-test
and
chi
-squared
analysis
were
performed
.
Fifty
-
four
patients
(
Soave
27
,
Swenson
27
)
had
adequate
data
for
matching
and
analysis
.
Mean
follow-up
was
4
±
1
.
6
years
and
3
.
2
±
2
.
7
years
for
the
Soave
and
Swenson
groups
,
respectively
.
No
significant
differences
in
mean
operating
time
(
Soave
:
191
±

Swenson
:

±

,
and

(

,
post-operative

(

,

,
or
fecal
incontinence
(
0
vs

,
p
=

.

)
were
noted
.
After
controlling
for
potential
confounders
,
there
were
no
significant
differences
in
the
short
and
intermediate
term
outcome
between
transanal
Soave
and
transanal
Swenson
pullthrough
procedures
.
