| Abstract (English): |
Biliary pain is a well-recognized functional disorder in adults, associated with dysfunctions of the gallbladder and the sphincter of Oddi, but it has been little studied in the pediatric population. It is characterized by pain in the right upper quadrant without evidence of structural pathology and requires specific diagnostic tests for its identification. Given that gastrointestinal pathophysiology is similar in children and adults, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of biliary pain in children over 8 years old in Lima, Peru, using a questionnaire adapted from adult criteria. The findings highlight the need to deepen the diagnosis and management of this disorder in the pediatric population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): |
El dolor biliar es un trastorno funcional bien reconocido en adultos, asociado a disfunciones de la vesícula biliar y el esfínter de Oddi, pero poco estudiado en población pediátrica. Se caracteriza por dolor en el cuadrante superior derecho sin evidencia de patología estructural y requiere pruebas diagnósticas específicas para su identificación. Dado que la fisiopatología gastrointestinal es similar en niños y adultos, este artículo describe la prevalencia de dolor biliar en niños mayores de 8 años en Lima, Perú, mediante un cuestionario adaptado de criterios adultos. Los hallazgos resaltan la necesidad de profundizar en el diagnóstico y manejo de este trastorno en la población pediátrica. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
