DIAGNOSTICS AND TREATMENT OF FOREIGN BODIES IN THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IN CHILDREN. A LITERATURE REVIEW


Cite item

Full Text

Abstract

Foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract in children is one of the most challenging clinical scenarios which pediatric surgeons and gastroenterologists face. Previously published materials demonstrate that 80% of foreign bodies pass spontaneously through the gastrointestinal digestive tract without any harm to the child’s health, while 20% require endoscopic and/or surgical intervention, since delay in treatment can cause serious life-threatening complications. The present review discusses prevalence of foreign body ingestion in children. It also describes in detail controversial aspects of current diagnostic and treatment modalities.
