Bladder and sexual symptoms after Hirschsprung surgery
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at bladder and sexual symptoms in people who had surgery for Hirschsprung disease, a condition affecting the bowel. It aims to understand long-term effects on urinary and sexual health to improve follow-up care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how well the Swenson surgery works for children with Hirschsprung disease, a condition where part of the bowel is missing nerve cells. It aims to see how children do after this specific type of surgery, which might help doctors and families make decisions.
This study looks at long-term health and development outcomes in children who were diagnosed and treated for Hirschsprung’s disease or anorectal malformations. It uses both numbers and interviews to understand what happens over time after treatment, helping families and clinicians plan better care.
This study looks at whether physical therapy (exercises) can help children who have had surgery for Hirschsprung's disease feel better and have fewer bowel problems. Your child may take part if they have had the surgery and are coming for regular check-ups.
This study keeps a research record of people who have Hirschsprung disease and have had surgery. It helps doctors better understand long-term outcomes and care needs for future patients.
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery to repair a rare birth defect affecting the whole large intestine (total colonic Hirschsprung disease). Your child will have already had a first surgery as a baby; this study tests which second surgery works better, using robot or laparoscopy to help with recovery.
This trial collects leftover intestine tissue from children having bowel surgery to help develop future treatments using a child's own cells. It aims to find better ways to repair the bowel without needing donor tissue.
