Aim: The study of duodenal morphology in children and adolescents with skeletal deformity.
Materials And Methods: Clinical, hormonal examinations, x-ray investigation of the skeleton with spinal NMR-tomography, gastroduodenoscopy with target biopsy were performed in 41 patients aged 7 to 18 on after treatment for broken spine.
Results: Atrophic duodenitis found in most of the patients presented without dyspepsia, with symptoms of duodenitis in 8 patients, osteoporosis in 36% of patients. NMR-tomography rejected compression-broken spine in 22 patients.
Conclusion: Disturbed absorption of calcium and atrophic alterations in the duodenal mucosa are thought responsible for disturbance of calcium metabolism and formation of bone tissue.

An a (AEF) is a rare but life-threatening condition where an abnormal connection forms between the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly the duodenum. It can be primary (arising spontaneously due to an aortic aneurysm or infection) or secondary (complicating prior vascular surgery). Immediate recognition and surgical intervention are critical to manage severe gastrointestinal bleeding and prevent fatal outcomes.

Hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) and hypermobility Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) are frequently associated with gastrointestinal symptoms, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to compare antroduodenal motility in patients with and without HSD/hEDS. We included 239 patients (50 HSD/hEDS and 189 non-HSD/hEDS) with gastrointestinal symptoms undergoing antroduodenal manometry (ADM).
