BACKGROUND: Fundoplication is often performed in conjunction with gastrostomy tube (GT) placement in children, but there is a great deal of variation in rates of and indications for this procedure. Little is known about the impact of fundoplication on peri-operative outcomes. This study examines a national cohort of pediatric patients to compare risk-adjusted surgical outcomes in patients undergoing GT placement with or without concomitant fundoplication.
METHODS: We identified all patients undergoing GT placement in the 2012 National Surgical Quality Improvement Program - Pediatric. We evaluated demographics, comorbidities, complications, and length of stay for GT with fundoplication versus GT alone. We defined composite morbidity as a dichotomous variable for the presence of any complication. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of morbidity after adjusting for covariates.
RESULTS: 1289 GT patients were identified, and 148 (11.5%) underwent concurrent fundoplication. The fundoplication patients were more likely to be younger, have cardiac risk factors, and be on respiratory support. They also had higher rates of surgical site infection (7.4% vs 3.7%, p=0.03) and composite morbidity (16.9% vs 8.7%, p=0.001), and longer LOS (median 5 vs 3 days, p=<0.0001) compared to GT only. After adjusting for covariates, fundoplication was a predictor of composite morbidity and increased LOS.
CONCLUSION: Concomitant fundoplication is an independent risk factor for 30-day post-operative morbidity in patients undergoing GT placement. These findings do not negate the value of fundoplication but underscore the importance of careful patient selection, and should be taken into consideration when discussing risks and benefits with families.
