Abstract :Thirty-five pediatric patients ranging in age between 8 months and 14 years were endoscoped in order to diagnose the cause of abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, growth failure, diarrhea or constipation. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures were . performed in 10 patients. Twelve patients underwent colonoscopy in addition to 9 patients who were examined by rigid rectoscopy. Endoscopic polypectomy was performed in 4 patients. Intravenous sedation was given to all cases. No life threatening complications occurred. Endoscopic procedures appeared more sensitive than barium contrast studies in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases.
Keywords : Endoscopy, gastrointestinal tract, pediatric patients
