ABSTRACT The study has been conducted over a period of 4 years, on a total number of 133 dogs, all of those expressing gastrointestinal disorders. Ultrasound and endoscopic examinations were performed in all dogs in order to assess any significant correlations between ultrasonographic and endoscopic findings. The results confirm a significant correlation between the presence of diarrhoea and increased thickness of the large bowel wall, with P<0.5. Another extremely significant correlation we observed is the one between increased thickness of large bowel wall and loss of layering at this level, with P<0.5. Upper GI endoscopy revealed that dilated lacteals in the duodenum are significantly associated with the presence of diarrhoea, P<0.5 and, more importantly, there is a very significant correlation between dilated lacteals and the presence of striations (P<0.5), which confirms previous studies (Sutherland-Smith et al., 2007) that say the striated aspect of the intestinal mucosa is due to dilated lacteals.

Background: Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy is a safe and sensitive investigation in the diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal diseases. There is limited study on paediatric upper GI endoscopy in our country. This study was done only in BSMMU, a tertiary care health facility of Bangladesh.Objectives: The aim of the study was to find out the indications, common endoscopic findings and immediate post procedure complication of UGI endoscopy in children.Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of 100 patients from August 2013 to October 2014. The indications for UGI endoscopy, common endoscopic findings and immediate post procedure complications were collected from case recording &were analyzed.Results: The commonest indication was upper GI bleeding in the form of hematemesis with or without melenae (41%). The most common finding was esophageal varices (49%). Less common findings were esophagitis, gastritis & gastro-duodenal ulcer. There was no post procedure complication.Conclusion: In the study, the commonest indication for Pediatric UGI endoscopy was upper GI bleeding and the commonest endoscopic abnormality was esophageal varices. No immediate post procedure complication was noted in the study.Bangladesh J Child Health 2016; VOL 40 (1) :17-20

Objective: To document various endoscopic findings in patients undergoingupper GI endoscopy in our endoscopy unit. Design: Observational. Patients and methods: Thedata of 100 patients who underwent upper GI endoscopy in Endoscopy Unit of IndependentMedical College/ Independent University Hospital from April 2010 to December 2012 wasanalyzed. Demographic features, reasons for referral and endoscopic diagnoses were noted.Results: Among 100 patients, 35% were referred due to persistent vomiting, 28% due toepigastric pain / discomfort, 18 % due to dyspepsia and 7% due to retrosternal burning and uppergastrointestinal bleeding. Common endoscopic diagnoses were gastritis (28%), duodenitis(14%), gastroesophageal reflux disease / esophagitis (6%), esophageal varices (5%) andesophageal growth (4%). Conclusions: The most common presenting complaint was persistentvomiting followed by epigastric pain / discomfort and the most common endoscopic finding wasgastritis.
