What are risks of fundoplication surgery on infants?

Surgeons always: Discuss benefits vs. Risks of a procedure before parents sign a consent for surgery. Fundoplication is usually proposed if infant is not gaining weight, has esophagitis, is aspirating formula into the lungs, or neurologic problems cause feeding difficulty & a gastrostomy tube is needed, all of which are a much greater risk than surgery or anaesthesia. It's also considered when meds haven't worked.
