Abstract
Endoscopy in children has developed along with pediatric gastroenterology over the last four decades. Introduction of endoscopic techniques in adults precedes application in children, and pediatric endoscopists do fewer procedures than their adult counterparts whether routine or as an emergency. Training for pediatric endoscopists therefore needs to be thorough. This article in particular highlights developments in pediatric gastroenterology of importance to emergency procedures.
