Abstract
Pathogenesis of cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is still uncertain. Aim of our study has been to verify the role of gastric emptying time in children affected by CVS. We studied 9 children with CVS who underwent measurement of gastric emptying time by real-time ultrasonography after administration of a mixed, solid-liquid meal. In all the children gastric emptying time resulted in normal range. Our data suggest that mobility abnormalities of the stomach don't play a key role in the pathogenesis of CVS.Entities:
