Therefore, the most important factor for early diagnosis is clinical suspicion aboutthe presence of this disease. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is the gold standard method fordiagnosis. Medical management almost always provides high clinical success. Pediatriciansshould have sufficient background information about this disease and endoscopic investigationshould not be ignored when clinically indicated.Key Worlds: Peptic ulcer, childhood, H. pylori
