title: [The relation of professor Hirschsprung (author's transl)].
abstract: The disease described by Hirschsprung about "rectal-sluggishness of newborns" remains clinically important. However, its course is often atypical. A different histological or histochemical picture may underlie similar symptoms. Hypoganglionosis and intestinal neuronal dysplasia are the most predominant among them.
