ROUTINE BOTULINUM TOXIN INJECTION ONE MONTH AFTER A SWENSON PULL-THROUGH DOES NOT CHANGE THE INCIDENCE OF HIRSCHSPRUNG ASSOCIATED ENTEROCOLITIS

Retrospective study comparing Hirschsprung disease patients who received routine botulinum toxin injection one month after Swenson pull-through versus those who did not. Results indicate that prophylactic botulinum toxin does not reduce the incidence of Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) in the postoperative period.
