Twenty seven children who had been diagnosed as having idiopathic chest pain were investigated to find out if the pain was of gastrointestinal origin. The symptoms had lasted from two weeks to eight months. In 21 of the 27 children (78%) the chest pain had a gastrointestinal cause: 16 had oesophagitis, four had gastritis, and one had diffuse oesophageal spasm. All patients responded to medical treatment of their gastrointestinal symptoms, resulting in disappearance of the chest pain.
对27名被诊断患有特发性胸痛的儿童进行了调查,以确定疼痛是否源于胃肠道。症状持续了两周至八个月。在这27名儿童中,有21名(78%)的胸痛是由胃肠道原因引起的:16名患有食管炎,4名患有胃炎,1名患有弥漫性食管痉挛。所有患者对胃肠道症状的药物治疗均有反应,胸痛消失。
