X-Ray

Imaging findings are:

• Radiography performed in children with Hirschsprung disease yields findings similar to those in other forms of low small bowel obstruction: variable gaseous distention of the colon and small bowel, often with air-fluid levels.
• The colon is usually difficult to identify accurately, and gas is usually absent in the rectum.
