Abstract:
:Even though chest pain in children is a common complaint, an underlying gastrointestinal cause is rare. The four common gastrointestinal conditions that present with chest pain include eosinophilic esophagitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, esophageal dysmotility, and foreign body ingestion. Other than ingestion of certain foreign bodies, most of these conditions are not life-threatening. Associated symptoms and history may be helpful in distinguishing these disorders, but further evaluation is often indicated to identify the precise cause.
