Paediatric Gastroenterology

This comprehensive handbook provides an essential source of information and practical advice for medical students, trainee and pediatric residents. Although the development of information via the internet has made it easy to learn , find information and communications, yet this handbook has collected most of the essential information needed about gastrointestinal disorder during childhood. As in most of my handbook, this book also starts with congenital malformation of the gastrointestinal tract. Problems that arise from the congenital malformation present very early in infancy as surgical emergency situation that threaten lives if not managed promptly. An important chapter in this handbook is the Functional Gastro-intestinal disorder of infancy. These are very common problems affecting about half the population of infant across the globe. They comprise a range of recurrent disorders that are explained by anatomical , structural or biochemical abnormalities. Acquired
