INTESTINAL AGANGLIONOSIS IN THE SMITH‐LEMLI‐OPITZ SYNDROME

Abstract

ABSTRACT. Two unrelated cases with clinical and autopsy findings of the Smith‐Lemli‐Opitz syndrome are described. Narrowing of the terminal ileum and congenital intestinal aganglionosis was found in both. This is a rare association and the importance of microscopic examination of the intestine in cases of the Smith‐Lemli‐Opitz syndrome is emphasized.
