Description
Background: Corrosive intake, which can block stomach outlets, is especially dangerous for children. This retrospective study examined corrosion-induced stomach outlet blockages in children treated at MGM medical college and LSK hospital in kishanganj. Methods: The electronic medical records of 100 paediatric patients with verified corrosive intake were retrospectively analysed. Subject demographics, corrosive substances swallowed, clinical symptoms, treatment techniques, side effects, and final outcomes were collected and examined. Results: Most corrosive agents consumed were alkaline (65%). Most patients (85%) had severe stomach pain and 92% vomited continuously. Conservative treatment helped 75% of patients, while 15% required surgery. Consequences included respiratory issues (25% of patients) and esophageal strictures (42%). Conclusion: Child stomach outlet blockage from corrosion is a severe health issue. Results are maximised by timely recognition and personalised management. Further study is needed to improve patient care and therapy procedures.
