A 20 years old soldier presented with acute large bowel obstruction.
Anamnesis revealed that the man was suffering from constipation and
soiling since early childhood. A comprehensive conservative treatment
afforded stabilization of his condition. A thorough multidisciplinary clinical
investigation led to the abovementioned diagnosis. The patient had anorectal
myectomy with good clinical response. A pathological diagnosis of
hypoganglyonosis was made. The "Road Map" that led to a successful
management of these rarely associated medical conditions will be presented.
