Abstract
A growing number of patients with Hirschsprung disease are reaching adulthood, of whom a significant minority will require ongoing input from healthcare providers. In order to ensure patients receive the best care possible, it is essential to transition patients appropriately to adult services. This article describes the unmet need and some of the obstacles to this process and explores potential solutions, drawing on model examples for transitional care.
期刊介绍：
Children is an international, open access journal dedicated to a streamlined, yet scientifically rigorous, dissemination of peer-reviewed science related to childhood health and disease in developed and developing countries.
The publication focuses on sharing clinical, epidemiological and translational science relevant to children’s health. Moreover, the primary goals of the publication are to highlight under‑represented pediatric disciplines, to emphasize interdisciplinary research and to disseminate advances in knowledge in global child health. In addition to original research, the journal publishes expert editorials and commentaries, clinical case reports, and insightful communications reflecting the latest developments in pediatric medicine. By publishing meritorious articles as soon as the editorial review process is completed, rather than at predefined intervals, Children also permits rapid open access sharing of new information, allowing us to reach the broadest audience in the most expedient fashion.
