Since the presence of Hirschsprung disease is related to NPARMs and the number of alanine repeats, we suggest performing CCHS genetic investigation and periodical assessment also in patients without a clear history of CCHS but affected by Hirschsprung disease.

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS), a unique disorder of respiratory control associated with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) and tumors of neural crest origin, results from polyalanine repeat expansion mutations in the paired-like homeobox (PHOX)2B gene in more than 90% of cases, and alternative PHOX2B mutations in remaining cases.

Recent studies have shown that 1) PHOX2B is the main disease-causing gene for congenital central hypoventilation syndrome, an autosomal dominant disorder with incomplete penetrance; 2) PHOX2B is the first gene for which germline mutations have been demonstrated to predispose to neuroblastoma; and 3) Hirschsprung disease was associated with an intronic single-nucleotide polymorphism of the PHOX2B gene in a case-control study.
