The clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of the3 functional disorders of the digestive system in children were prepared by a Group of Experts, domestic leading specialists in the field of the pediatric gastroenterology, who generalized the foreign guidelines and domestic experience, suggesting the tactics for the pediatrician actions in the everyday practice. Part 3 of the Guidelines discusses the billiard tract dysfunctions and functional constipations. There are no biliary tract dysfunctions in the Pediatric Sections of Rome Consensus IV; however, the Russian pediatric school of thought has always considered them as important in terms of one of the causes for abdominal pain in children. This attitude was supported by the experts, and it is maintained in these Guidelines. The functional constipations are common in the children of different ages, and they present not only a medical problem, but also a serious social one for both children and their parents. That is why the considerable attention has been paid to this pathology considering the psychosocial aspects of the correction.
