New hope for kids: avoiding surgery for Stomach-Tube aftereffects
NCT ID NCT03920306
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested non-surgical treatments for gastrocutaneous fistula (GCF), a small hole that sometimes remains after a child's feeding tube is removed. About 100 children who were ready to have their tube removed took part. The goal was to see if simple, non-surgical methods could close the hole and avoid the need for more surgery.
