Abstract
This article reports the clinical, physiopathologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of the most common anorectal disorders in children. In particular, it focuses on the differential diagnosis between organic and functional constipation. In addition, the authors separately examine some of the clinical conditions such as atopy, neurologic diseases, and anorectal malformations, in which chronic constipation may be an important clinical manifestation.
