The clinical scenario of a neurologically impaired child with a prolonged history of gastroesophageal reflux disease that underwent open Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy with subsequent development of severe symptomatic bile reflux is reported. The presentation, evaluation, and surgical management by laparoscopic revision to a modified esophagogastric dissociation are discussed.
