Abstract We describe a mother–infant dyad. The mother, a 16‑year‑old teenager, presented with a background of lifelong chronic constipation, recurrent abdominal discomforts, pain and distension, and malabsorption. The patient presented suddenly with progressive gait disturbance, and profound anemia. She was diagnosed with hypoganglionosis on full‑thickness biopsy and SCD on MRI. Her infant daughter presented at 7 months with acute ileocolic intussusception, requiring radiological reduction. Both cases occurred in the absence of known syndromic associations.
