Abstract
No Colombian update articles dealing with this subject were found and international articles showed inconclusive results on the various topics of natural history, course, diagnosis, and treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder in children and adolescents. Conclusions: This is a chronic disorder with intense anxiety, high comorbidity, and no accurate predictors of prognosis. The social image of the perfect child and the lack of awareness about their condition restricts their care and improvement.
