The Three well known operations which had been and still available for management of HD are: Soave, Swenson, and Duhamel operations. Transanal endorectal pull-through and laparoscopically assisted Swenson pull-through procedures for Hirschsprung’s disease offer a minimally invasive alternatives to traditional open abdominal operations.
