Endoscopic balloon dilatation has provided a non-operative means of managing obstructive lesions in the gastrointestinal tract. In an infant with idiopathic hypertrophic pyloric stenosis(IHPS), the stenosis was successfully dilated with endoscopic balloon dilatation. Endoscopic balloon dilatation was performed using a 9mm endoscope and through-the-scope(TTS) balloon catheter (diameter 10 to 12mm). Dilatation was performed two times for 5 minutes. The 9mm... |

Purpose : Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) is recognized as the cause of primary or unexplained gastrointestinal diseases in children as well as in adults. However, it is unclear whether H. pylori causes specific clinical symptoms or diseases. Therefore, we studied the clinical manifestations associated with H. pylori infection in consecutive symptomatic children undergoing diagnostic endoscopy.
Methods : This study included 42... |

Helicobacter pylori has become apparent that this organism is an etiologic agent of gastrits
and peptic ulcer disease in humans.
We present four cases of iron deficiency anemia, not specific causes, in 3 males and 1
female patients with Helicobacter pylori infection, who were treated with antibiotics and iron
supplemented therapy. Diagnosis was confirmed by endoscopic biopsies and hematologic findings.

Purpose : Recurrent abdominal pain (RAP) in children is similar to nonulcer dyspepsia of adult. Recently, microscopic inflammation and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection have been suggested as possible causes of nonulcer dyspepsia in adults. The aim was to know the clinical significance of encoscopic findings and H. pylori infection in children with RAP.
Methods : 128 children with RAP underwent... |

The diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal tract hemorrhage in infants and children have
been changed dramatically over the past decade. Although previous reviews of this subject have
suggested that the cause of gastrointestinal tract bleeding may remain obscure in many patients,
recent experience indicates that this is now uncommon. This advance is largely a result of the
widespread and now routine application of fiberoptic... |

Caroli’s disease was first described by Caroli in 1958 and characterized by segmental cystic
dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts. There is stasis of bile with stone formation in the dilatated
ducts, giving rise to frequent attacks of pain and cholangitis.
In the past, diagnosis of the Caroli’s disease is rarely established prior to operation and subsequent
cholangiography. Recently, with ultrasonography, computerized tomography, radioisotope... |
