Aim: To systematically review literature and to assess the status of the ERAS protocol in pediatric populations undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.
Methods: Literature research was carried out for papers comparing ERAS and traditional protocol in children undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. Data on complications, hospital readmission, length of hospital stay, intraoperative fluid volume, post-operative opioid usage, time to defecation, regular diet, intravenous fluid stop, and costs were collected and analyzed. Analyses were performed using OR and CI 95%. A p value <0.05 was considered significant.
Results: A total of 8 papers met the inclusion criteria, with 943 included patients. There was no significant difference in complication occurrence and 30-day readmission. Differently, length of stay, intraoperative fluid volume, post-operative opioid use, time to first defecation, time to regular diet, time to intravenous fluid stop, and costs were significantly lower in the ERAS groups.
Conclusions: ERAS protocol is safe and feasible for children undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. Without any significant complications and hospital readmission, it decreases length of stay, ameliorates the recovery of gastrointestinal function, and reduces the needs of perioperative infusion, post-operative opioid administration, and costs.

Background: Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, primarily due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, leads to impaired cortisol and aldosterone production and excess adrenal androgens. Lifelong glucocorticoid therapy is required, often necessitating supraphysiological doses in youth to manage androgen excess and growth acceleration. These patients experience higher obesity rates, hypertension, and glucose metabolism issues, complicating long-term health management.
