Abstract
The case of a female infant with a feeding disorder and with inadequate growth is described. In her workup, there was no evidence of an organic disorder. Barium studies of the upper GI tract showed normal anatomy and function. A radionuclide milk scan was helpful in demonstrating mild reflux and significantly delayed gastric emptying. There was a good response to therapy.
