What the experts said
The study was prospective and took place from 2021 to 2023
The study included 33 patients under six months old who underwent endorectal pull-through surgeries
Patients were assigned to either a new non-dilation protocol group or a traditional dilation group
The primary outcomes measured were anastomotic complications, enterocolitis, and constipation
There was no significant difference in anastomotic complications between the two groups
The non-dilation group had less enterocolitis compared to the traditional dilation group
The non-dilation group had less constipation compared to the traditional dilation group
Choosing not to do postoperative anal dilations may be a good alternative with benefits like lower constipation and enterocolitis
