title: [Diagnosis of pancreatic insufficiency using fluorescein-dilaurate in children (author's transl)].
abstract: The tubeless for diagnosing exocrine pancreatic insufficiency using Fluorescein-Dilaurate was first applied to children of three years and younger, and to children with malabsorption and/or maldigestion. Fluorescein-Dilaurate in this test is an indication for the excretion of the pancreas-specific arylesterases. The dosage and the amount of liquid to be drunk by adults were reduced. It was shown that - applied to children of more than three years- reliability and validity of the test were not perceptibly influenced by the practise modifications and by the existing malabsorption/maldigestion. The applicability of this method to children of three years and younger depends on the observance of certain rules. Thereby, the test becomes sufficiently practicable also in children of three years and younger.
