Abstract
Despite the fact that children are not small adults, some children wil l invariably be evaluated with adult imaging protocols. As CT gains po pularity in the evaluation of the adult gastrointestinal (GI) tract, t here will undoubtedly be some spillover into the pediatric age group. This pictorial essay reviews the CT appearance of some common pediatri c GI disorders as common diseases may present uncommonly, both clinica lly and radiographically.
