Megacystis Microcolon Intestinal Hypoperistalsis Syndrome; Congenital Mydriasis |
Description |
Megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS) is a rare, congenital disease affecting smooth muscle peristalsis in the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder. We report the second case of bilateral mydriasis associated with MMIHS and present the first report of pilocarpine testing which suggests MMIHS is caused by an underlying smooth muscle myopathy. |
