Complex diseases are common genetic disorders showing familial aggregation but no typical Mendelian inheritance. Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), a developmental disorder characterized by the absence of enteric neurons in distal segments of the gut, shows a complex pattern of inheritance, with the RET p
