Abstract
-
The hypoganglionosis is a relatively rare disease. Most of the hypoganglionosises are presented as congenital megacolon and diagnosed at early life. But some of them are diagnosed at adult. The localized hypoganglionosis, which is spared at rectum, is very rare. I experienced a case of localized hypoganglionosis which is localized at the left colon. So I reported it and reviewed related literatures.
