The Hirschsprung and Anorectal Malformation Quality of Life (HAQL) questionnaire is a disease-specific instrument developed in the Netherlands to measure the QoL in patients with HD and anorectal malformations. The aim of this study was to translate, culturally adapt and validate HAQL in a Danish Hirschsprung population.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Material and methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Translation and cultural adaptation were performed according to international guidelines. Invitations to participate in the validation were sent to 401 patients operated for HD during the period from 1985 to 2012. A total of 156 patients completed the translated and culturally adapted Danish versions of HAQL and 35 parents of children and adolescents completed the corresponding parent questionnaire. Reliability was evaluated in terms of internal consistency using Cronbach\u2019s <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic> and test\u2013retest reliability using Intraclass Correlation Coefficient for the retest step.\u00a0Known groups comparison was performed with comparison of mild HD (defined as recto-sigmoidal HD) and serious HD (defined as more proximal disease).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The internal consistency of the dimensions was overall satisfactory for adults and adolescents but more problematic for children, where Cronbach\u2019s <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic> was less than 0.7 in 60% of the dimensions. For both children and adolescents, the <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>-value was unsatisfactory for social functioning, emotional functioning, and body image. The test\u2013retest reliability was overall good.
