Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and non-infective etiological characteristics of children with lower gastrointestinal bleeding(LGIB), and to explore the application value of electronic colonoscopy in diagnosis and treatment of LGIB.Methods:A total of 311 cases of children with LGIB admitted to our hospital from June 2016 to June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively, and the relevant clinical data were summarized.Results:The ratio of boys to girls was 1.46∶1.The average age was(4.67±3.99)years old.Preschool children account for 67.85%.A total of 97.75% of the children had bloody stool with naked eyes, mainly with simple bloody stool.The main accompanying symptoms were abdominal pain(31.19%)and diarrhea(24.11%). The positive rate of occult blood test was 55.26%, and the positive rate of colonoscopy was 86.49%.The common causes of LGIB in children were intestinal polyps, colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, allergic colitis, allergic purpura and Meckel′s diverticulum.There were statistical differences in the number of cases of some etiology at different age stages, including colon polyps( P<0.001), colitis( P=0.020), ulcerative colitis( P<0.001), allergic colitis( P<0.001), Henoch-Schonlein purpura( P=0.031)and Behcet′s disease( P=0.033). Allergic colitis was more common in 1~6 months old, and the incidence rate gradually decreased with age.Inflammatory bowel disease was the primary cause of children aged 11~16 years.All children′s bleeding symptoms disappeared after treatment and the occult blood test was negative.The cure rate was 41.80% (130 cases) and the improvement rate was 58.20% (181 cases). Conclusion:The etiology of LGIB in children is complex, and the etiology is related to the age of onset.Intestinal polyps and colitis are the main causes of the disease, which are common in all ages.Colonoscopy is safe and efficient, playing an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of children with LGIB.
