چکیده
A review of the recent literature indicates that even though dyspepsia is common in adults, only limited data regarding dyspepsia in children is available. Spiroglou et al, in a recent study, found over 50% of their patients, to have functional dyspepsia with the more commonly encountered symptoms being nausea, vomiting, early satiety, awaking from sleep and increased belching. Hyams et al, in a prospective study, found, after esophagogastroduodenoscopy and biopsy, 35 out of 56 patients (62.5%) have functional dyspepsia.
