  • Title: [Dumping syndrome: a case after Nissen's operation].
    Author: Gottrand F, Seret N, Turck D, Debeugny P, Farriaux JP.
    Journal: Pediatrie; 1988; 43(4):301-4. PubMed ID: 3047661.
    Abstract:
    We report on a case of dumping syndrome 1 month after Nissen fundoplication in a 5 month-old infant presenting with symptoms of late hypoglycemia. Blood glucose levels in pre- and post-prandial periods, oral glucose tolerance test and isotopic gastric emptying study confirmed the diagnosis. All symptoms resolved with diet therapy which could be stopped 8 months later. Dumping syndrome is not a so rare complication of gastric surgery and should be considered in patients with non specific symptoms.
