The analysis of anamnestic and clinical indices, and also morphological investigation of biopsy materials of mucous coat of stomach and duodenum in children with chronic gastroduodenitis of different etiology including lambliasis invasion is carried out with the purpose of detecting features of clinicopathologic presentations of chronic gastroduodenitis in children with and without lambliasis invasion. Material and methods. 100 patients (50 children with confirmed lambliasis invasion and 50 patients without lambliasis invasion) aged from 2 up to 16 were under observation. The material for histologic study was received as a result of fibrogastroduodenoscopy carried out with target biopsy of fundic, antrum and duodenum mucosa. Results. As a result of the findings moderate pains sited in epigastric and periumbilical regions are characteristic for children with lambliasis invasion; irradiation and cramping characteristics of pains are typical. Conclusion. Manifestation of pains is not connected with the time of day and food intake, manifestation of seasonal prevalence is not typical as well, and progression of inflammatory process in the mucous coat of the stomach and duodenum is declared itself as a diffuse gastritis of the fundic part, a diffuse gastritis of the antral part, subatrophic duodenitis with cyst formation of Brunner's glands, and also the presence of eosinophilic leucocytes in the cellular infiltrate
