Abstract

The features of psychosomatic aspects of gastrointestinal disorders in child and adolescent are summarized as following two points: 1) there is a disease in which symptoms and condition in child and adolescent are different from those of adults with the same diagnosis; 2) There are some conditions which are seen only or mainly in child and adolescent. Irritable bowel syndrome and the gastro-esophageal reflex disease are regarded as problems having the former features. On the other hands, cyclic vomiting, and abdominal migraine are considered to diseases having the latter features. Because psychosomatic symptoms change by the age groups, it is important to understand physiological and psychosocial development according to the age of child and adolescent.
