Son bir yilda gastrointestinal sistem yakinmalariyla çocuk gastroenteroloji poliklinigine basvuran, tetkikler sonrasinda malignite tanisi alan hastalar tartisilmaktadir. Gastrointestinal sistem bulgulari ile izlenirken malignite tanisi alan dokuz olgu biyokimyasal, görüntüleme ve histopatolojik yöntemler ile degerdirildi. Yaslari 4 ay-8 yasinda olan olgulardan; biri Burkitt lösemi, ikisi Burkitt lenfoma, diger ikisi nöroblastom tanisi alirken iki olgu posterior fossa tümorü, iki olguyada Langerhans hücreli histiyositoz tanisi konuldu. Tüm olgular tedavilerinin devami için çocuk onkoloji servisine sevk edildi. Gastrintestinal sistem bulgulari ile basvuran olgular yandal polikliniklerine yönlendirilmeden önce genel pediyatri uzmanlari tarafindan daha detayli olarak degerlendirilmelidir. Anahtar kelimeler: Gastrointestinal sistem disi, malinite, çocukluk In these case series, patients admitted to pediatric gastroenterology outpatient clinic with gastrointestinal complaints in the last year and diagnosed with malignancy after the examinations were discussed. Nine patients diagnosed with malignancy were evaluated with biochemical, imaging and histopathological methods. One of the patients, aged 4 months 8 years, was diagnosed with Burkitt's leukemia, two were diagnosed with Burkitt's lymphoma, the other two were diagnosed with neuroblastoma while two were diagnosed with posterior fossa tumor, two were diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis. All patients were referred to the pediatric oncology service for further treatment. We think that patients presenting with gastrointestinal findings should be evaluated in more detail by general pediatricians before they are referred to minor outpatient clinics.
