2010
Abstrakt
Althoug limited by the short-time duration and the heterpgeneity of the patients included throughout the 19 centres, our study shows a frequency of 8.1% of ulcers and/erosions in children, occuring mainly in the second decade of life. H. pylori infection and gastrotoxic medications were less frequently implicated than expected.
