A combined hospital experience with fundoplication and gastric emptying procedure for gastroesophageal reflux in children.

Abstract

The excellent clinical results with low morbidity in this largest reported clinical experience with GEP in childhood suggest that a GEP should be combined with GEF for symptomatic children who have both GER and DGE. Minimal investigative studies are necessary for most neurologically impaired children who require a feeding gastrostomy.
