Total Esophageal Gastric Dissociation for the Failed Antireflux Procedure in a Child with Microgastria

Abstract Microgastria is a very rare anomaly characterized by a very small tubular stomach that presents with severe gastroesophageal reflux disease due to the small reservoir capacity of the stomach. We present a patient with microgastria-related reflux and a failed fundoplication who was treated w...
