The list of conditions mentioned by various sources as associated with Hirschsprung's disease includes:
Associated conditions are those which appear statistically related, but do not have a clear cause or effect relationship. Whereas the complications are caused by Hirschsprung's disease, and underlying causes may be causes of Hirschsprung's disease, the following list shows associated conditions that simply appear with higher frequency in people who have Hirschsprung's disease. In some cases, there may be overlap between this list and risk factors for Hirschsprung's disease. People with Hirschsprung's disease may be more likely to get a condition on the list of associated conditions, or the reverse may be true, or both. Whether they are causes of, caused by, or simply coincidentally related to Hirschsprung's disease is not always clear. For general information, see Associated Condition Misdiagnosis.
