Can you tell me about fundoplication surgery on infants?

Done for severe GER: All young infants have some gastroesophageal reflux; that's why they spit-up. At 4-6 months' age, the lower esophageal sphincter becomes more competent, and reflux usually subsides. If it continues and causes severe problems with the respiratory system (stopping breathing, recurrent pneumonia), poor nutrition, or direct esophageal complications (inflammation, stricture), surgery is considered.
