#345: Little Bellies Gone Bad - Pediatric GI Disorders

Children can have a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders, and exams will require you to be able to differentiate between each one. In this episode, I’m providing a high level overview of common pediatric GI disorders:

• Gastroesophageal reflux disease
• Hirschsprung disease
• Intussusception
• Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
• Biliary atresia
• Meckel’s diverticulum
• Short bowel syndrome

Plus, there’s a PodQuiz at the end…so make sure you listen all the way through!
