    Abstract

    Seventy two children with symptoms and signs consistent with Hirschsprung's disease had full thickness and suction rectal biopsies performed. Results were identical with both methods, except for one case of total aganglionosis of the colon. Full thickness biopsy no longer has a place as a screening method.
