    Abstract

    Two children with Nissen's fundoplication and either gastrocystoplasty or pyloroplasty developed dumping syndrome. Correction of their blood glucose abnormalities, resolution of symptoms, and weight gain were effectively achieved by addition of fats and uncooked corn starch (50 g/l) to their feeds.
