Atrophic hypoganglionosis in the colon of adults with slow-transit constipation: a morphometric histopathological investigation

Abstract: Zusammenfassung. Grundlagen: Die Kriterien einer Hypoganglionose in Kolonresektaten von Erwachsenen mit einer Slow-transit-Obstipation sind nicht genau definiert. Das Ziel der vorliegenden Untersuchung besteht in der Bestimmung der wichtigsten Parameter für die Diagnose einer Hypoganglionose an routinemäßig gewonnenen Transversalschnitten.Methodik: Zwölf histopathologisch diagnostizierte hypoganglionäre Hemikolektomie-Präparate des linken Kolon, die wegen einer Slow-transit-Obstipation reseziert worden waren, … Show more

“…Oligoneuronal hypoganglionosis has also been shown using enzyme histochemical techniques on whole mount frozen preparations with morphometric measurements. Two studies of 7 children [59] and 12 adults [60] with STC who were already deemed by ‘histopathological diagnosis’ to be hypoganglionic were confirmed to have reduced numbers of neurons and ganglia.…”

“…However, the elective staining of a particular tissue structure in enzyme histochemistry permits precise morphometric size measurement by means of optic electronic morphometry equipment, e.g. the ASBA3 system [44] (compare fig. 15 and 16 ).…”
