A Complex Chromosomal Rearrangement Associated with Hirschsprung's Disease

The authors present a de novo complex chromosomal rearrangement 46,XY,t(2q;3p;4q;13q) associated with Hirschsprung's disease. They review the literature concerning genetic aspects of Hirschsprung's disease focusing on genetic studies and recent molecular research. Genetic aspects of intestinal neuronal dysplasia are also briefly discussed.
