Core Tip: This is an author-initiated retraction request for the published article titled "Clinicopathologic features of allied disorders of Hirschsprung disease and status update". The primary reasons are that the submission lacked prior approval from the author's institution, and the authorship list incompletely omitted a key contributor who provided the core idea. The author sincerely apologizes to the readers, reviewers, editors, and to the supervisor whose contribution was overlooked for these errors and for any inconvenience caused by this retraction.
