The variability in presentation leads to a wide variety of the reported prevalence pre-and postoperatively. This systematic review aimed to clarify the prevalence of HAEC in short\u2014(S-HD), long (L-HD), TCA and the type of operation used.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic literature-based search for relevant cohorts was performed using Pubmed\/Medline, Cochrane Library from its inception to May 2021. Studies reporting on pre-and postoperative enterocolitis, segment length, and surgical procedure (Soave, Swenson, Duhamel) were included. Pooled prevalence and subgroup analysis have been calculated for pre-and postoperative HAEC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>4738 articles were identified from the literature search, among which 57 studies, including 9744 preoperative and 8568 postoperative patients, were included. The groups were sorted by length of the aganglionic segment for further analysis. The pooled prevalence for preoperative HAEC was 18.3% for all types, 15.2% for S-HD and 26.1% for TCA. The pooled prevalence for postoperative HAEC was in total 18.2% for all segment lengths and used techniques. Subgroup analysis showed no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative enterocolitis between the three techniques.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The prevalence of preoperative HAEC increases with segment length. However, pooled data suggest that the postoperative risk for developing HAEC, independently of the employed method and segment length, is comparable to the preoperative risk.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00383-021-05020-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,30]],"date-time":"2021-09-30T13:04:06Z","timestamp":1633007046000},"page":"3-24","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":51,"title":["Prevalence of Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis in patients with Hirschsprung disease"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"38","author":[{"given":"J.","family":"Hagens","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Reinshagen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Tomuschat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"5020_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"139","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1706594.Molecular","volume":"176","author":"JM Tilghman","year":"2017","unstructured":"Tilghman JM, Ling AY, Turner TN, Sosa MX, Krumm N, Chatterjee S, Kapoor A, Coe BP, Nguyen K-DH, Gupta N, Gab S (2017) Molecular gentic anatomy and risk profile of Hirschsprung\u2019s disease.
