description Background and Aims:  Recurrent abdominal pain is common among children and adolescents. The majority of the affected patients have no apparent cause for their symptoms. This study evaluated gastric myoelectrical activity and motility abnormalities in children and adolescents with functional recurrent abdominal pain. Methods:  Forty‐two children with functional recurrent abdominal pain [19 (45.2%) males, mean 8 years, SD 3 years, 19 functional abdominal pain, 9 irritable bowel syndrome, 9 functional dyspepsia, 1 abdominal migraine, 1 aerophagia and 3 non‐specific abdominal pain according to Rome III criteria] and 20 healthy children [10 (50%) males, mean 9 years, SD 2.7 years] from the same geographical area underwent electrogastrography (EGG), and ultrasonographic assessment of gastric emptying rate and antral motility. Results:  Average gastric emptying rate, amplitude of antral contractions and antral motility index were lower in patients (46.5%, 74.3% and 6.5 respectively) compared to controls (66.17%, 89% and 8.3 respectively) (P
