COVID-19 and the digestive system lesions in children

https://doi.org/10.21508/1027-4065-2022-67-5-6-17

Abstract

Initially, doctors did not pay much attention to gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with COVID-19. Fever and respiratory syndrome were monitored. A more prolonged observation period revealed gastrointestinal disorders to be an important element of the new coronavirus infection. In scientific publications, a stable term appeared — gastrointestinal coronavirus disease 2019. The tropism of the SARS-CoV-2 virus to the epitheliocytes of the gastrointestinal tract, the presence and long-term persistence of the virus in the feces were found. The frequent detection of gastrointestinal symptoms in infected patients, the frequent involvement of the liver and pancreas in the pathological process determine the importance of clinical and laboratory assessment of the state of the digestive system due to its undoubted impact on the status, course, and the overall disease prognosis. Based on the analysis of scientific publications, the article presents the results of the latest observations regarding the development of a new disease, its diagnosis, treatment options using modern drugs when combined with dyspeptic syndrome and other gastroenterological symptoms. The role of the use of standards, in particular the clinical recommendations of the Ministry of Health of Russia, is emphasized.
