Funktionelle Bauchschmerzen im Kindes- und Jugendalter

Chronische Bauchschmerzen bei Kindern sind häufig. Überwiegend handelt es sich um funktionelle Bauchschmerzen ohne Hinweise auf eine organische Erkrankung. Die ätiologische Einordnung ist Aufgabe des Kindergastroenterologen. Es gilt, eine organische Erkrankung nicht zu übersehen und Überdiagnostik zu vermeiden. Der Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über Diagnosekriterien, wichtige Differenzialdiagnosen, das Erklärungsmodell und Therapiekonzepte.
