Alterations of Gut Bacteria in Hirschsprung Disease and Hirschsprung-Associated Enterocolitis
Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) is a common life-threatening complication of Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). It has been proposed that gut microbiota, which have an essential role in gut-homeostasis, are associated with HAEC. Recent studies demonstrated an increase in alpha diversity of fe...

Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) is a common life-threatening complication of Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). It has been proposed that gut microbiota, which have an essential role in gut-homeostasis, are associated with HAEC. Recent studies demonstrated an increase in alpha diversity of fecal microbiota over time in HSCR mice and a decrease in diversity after surgery. In addition, clinical studies have reported a reduction in bacterial richness in HSCR children after surgery. Some studies revealed a difference in microbiota between the proximal ganglionic and distal aganglionic intestine and found a difference in bacterial character between fecal and colonic specimens. HAEC studies found an increase in <i>Proteobacteria</i>, especially <i>Escherichia</i> and <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i>, with a decrease in <i>Firmicutes</i> and <i>Bifidobacterium</i> in HAEC patients.
