Abstract
Establishing enteral feeding in high-risk infants with significant gastroesophageal reflux is a difficult challenge. Some patients are considered at very high risk for fundoplication and gastrostomy due to unstable medical conditions, dense upper-abdominal adhesions due to previous surgical procedures, or unfavorable anatomy. We describe a less invasive operation that provides jejunal feeding in a way that is safe, reliable, and convenient for the family.Entities:
