Refeeding syndrome and rumination in a pediatric patient: A case report reflecting an underdiagnosed pediatric emergency

Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Refeeding syndrome (RS) is a potentially life-threatening acute metabolic deterioration, affecting malnourished individuals. Although it is a well described condition, the evidence in pediatric population is limited. Herein, we describe a case of a 7-year-old patient with rumination syndrome and developmental delay, complicated with RS during the course of an acute gastroenteritis.
