Indian Journal of Pediatrics. 2003 Oct; 70(10): 839-41http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/83184Intestinal neuronal dysplasia is a rare cause of bowel obstruction in neonates and infants, the diagnosis of which poses a formidable challenge to both clinicians and pathologists alike. The importance of this entity lies not only in the fact that it mimics Hirschsprung's disease, but also in that untreated cases, particularly of type A, may prove fatal. The authors describe one such case of intestinal neuronal dysplasia of type A, which was diagnosed at autopsy.engFatal OutcomeFemaleHirschsprung Disease --pathologyHumansHypertrophy --pathologyInfantIntestinal Obstruction --pathologyNerve Fibers --pathologyPeripheral Nerves --pathologyCase Reports
