Recurrent abdominal pains occur in about 11% of children. Of these about 8% have an organic etiology. That a spinal cord tumor, especially the intramedullary type, may present with abdominal pains as the initial symptom is unknown in paediatric circles. To highlight this problem two patients are reported. Early diagnosis is essential. The most important clues to a spinal cord tumor are pain, progressive paralysis, and a sensory level. In children with recurrent abdominal pains of unclear etiology the possibility of a spinal cord tumor must be kept in mind and lead to appropriate investigations.
约11%的儿童会出现反复腹痛。其中约8%有器质性病因。脊髓肿瘤，尤其是髓内型脊髓肿瘤，可能以腹痛作为首发症状，这在儿科领域尚不为人所知。为突出这一问题，报告了两名患者。早期诊断至关重要。脊髓肿瘤最重要的线索是疼痛、进行性麻痹和感觉平面。对于病因不明的反复腹痛儿童，必须考虑到脊髓肿瘤的可能性并进行适当的检查。
