Abstract

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2) is shaking the world heavily. SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) infection has a wide variety of presentations as it affects almost every system of body. Gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary symptoms are frequently overlooked especially in children. Objectives: The purpose of this review was to discuss the gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary presentations of COVID-19 in children and compare with non-gastrointestinal presentations. Methods: This study was a narrative review. Recent available literature was searched by keywords. The most recent information from relevant articles were collected and reviewed. This write up was compiled after the review of articles from the last one and half year. Results: About 50.0% symptomatic children with COVID-19 had gastrointestinal manifestations. COVID-19 with gastrointestinal symptoms had delayed diagnosis, delayed hospitalization and worse outcome in compare with Covid-19 with non-gastrointestinal symptoms. Conclusion: Vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, anorexia, nausea are common gastrointestinal manifestations in children with COVID-19. Elevated transaminasemia is not uncommon.

背景:严重急性呼吸综合征-冠状病毒-2 (SARS-COV-2)正在严重震撼世界。SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19)感染具有各种各样的表现，因为它几乎影响身体的每个系统。胃肠道和肝胆症状经常被忽视，尤其是儿童。目的:本综述的目的是讨论儿童COVID-19的胃肠道和肝胆表现，并与非胃肠道表现进行比较。方法:本研究采用叙述性综述法。按关键词检索最近可用的文献。从相关文章中收集和审查了最新的信息。这篇文章是在回顾了过去一年半的文章后编写的。结果:有症状的COVID-19患儿约50.0%有胃肠道表现。与非胃肠道症状的COVID-19相比，伴有胃肠道症状的COVID-19诊断延迟、住院时间延迟、预后更差。结论:呕吐、腹泻、腹痛、厌食、恶心是新冠肺炎患儿常见的胃肠道表现。转氨酶升高并不罕见。孟加拉国地中海理事会2021年公报;47 (1): 3 - 8
