Khasaev KhM, Svarich VG, Kopylov SM.

The method of acupuncture may be used for postoperative rehabilitation of patients operated upon for Hirschsprung's disease. It can be one of main methods of treatment of postoperative complications which are of functional character. If there was no effect of the repeated course of acupuncture in patients with a long hypoganglionic zone of the descended gut, the latter must be resected within the healthy limits.
