The upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is a safe and efficient technique
with minimum complications; it is the preferred diagnostic procedure
for evaluation of the children's upper gastrointestinal gut. Although
there is a consensus over the indications for endoscopy in children,
there are few controlled studies about the therapeutic technique and
its effects in pediatric patients. Sedation in children is mandatory to
make easier the procedures. There are some complications, such as
cardiopulmonary problems, infections, hemorrhage, bowel perforations
and the complications related to sedation. We came to the conclusion
that through esophagogastroduodenoscopy we are able to make diagnostics
and treatment of the gastrointestinal diseases
