title: [Characteristics of peptic ulcer complications in children].
abstract: Follow-up of 1,432 children with gastric and duodenal ulcers revealed complications of the disease (hemorrhage, perforation, stenosis of the organ) in 120 of them (8.4%). The age-sexual features and the structure of complications in various forms of peptic ulcer in children were determined. It is emphasized that the hereditary factor and the endocrine reorganization of the child's organism during puberty have an important effect on the incidence of complications in peptic ulcer. The twofold increase of the incidence of peptic ulcer complications in children in the recent years testifies to its more severe course today.
