25. Fundoplication enhances gastric emptying.
Fundoplication of the stomach is an established surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux. Its mechanism of action remains unclear. To assess its effect on gastric emptying, 21 patients (11 men, 10 women), median age 47 years (range 19-72), underwent a gastric emptying study before and 6 months after fundoplication. Gastric emptying studies were performe

26. Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is an effective treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease.
OBJECTIVE: The open Nissen fundoplication is effective therapy for gastroesophageal reflux disease. In this study, the outcomes in 198 patients treated with the laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication was evaluated for up to 32 months after surgery to ascertain whether similar positive results could be obtained. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: To ensure surgical success

27. Management of oesophageal perforation associated with benign stricture and hiatus hernia by oesophagoplasty and fundoplication.
The operation of oesophagoplasty and Nissen fundoplication has proved valuable in the management of intractable peptic stricture of the oesophagus. This report concerns its use in perforation of the oesophagus in an 81-year-old woman with benign peptic stricture in whom perforation occurred during instrumentation. She made an uneventful recovery from operati

28. Nissen fundoplication in children with profound neurologic disability. High risks and unmet goals.
Anti-reflux procedures have been advocated in children with profound neurologic disability referred for feeding gastrostomy when gastroesophageal reflux is present. Facilitation of care, reduction in pneumonia and vomiting, and improvement in the general health and survival of these children have been major goals of fundoplication and gastrostomy. In large p

30. Dysphagia after laparoscopic antireflux surgery. The impact of operative technique.
BACKGROUND. Concerns about laparoscopic antireflux surgery include the frequent appearance of troublesome postoperative dysphagia. This study reviews the frequency of early (less than 6 weeks) and persistent (greater than 6 weeks) solid food dysphagia in patients undergoing Toupet, Rosetti-Nissen, or Nissen fundoplications. METHODS. One hundred eighty-four c

31. Intrathoracic fundoplication for reflux stricture associated with short oesophagus
Intrathoracic fundoplication was carried out in 45 patients with reflux stricture associated with a short oesophagus after the stricture had been fully dilated at operation. There were two deaths in hospital (4·4%). The follow-up extended from one to 10 years. Two patients required dilatation and four others had symptoms of nausea and fullness, all for up t

32. The treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease with laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication: prospective evaluation of 100 patients with "typical" symptoms.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate prospectively the outcome of laparoscopic fundoplication in a large cohort of patients with typical symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The development of laparoscopic fundoplication over the past several years has resulted in renewed interest in the surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

35. Mechanisms of gastric and esophageal perforations during laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine possible mechanisms of 17 gastric and esophageal perforations that occurred during laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. METHODS: Specific details of each perforation relating to mechanism of injury, surgeon experience, diagnosis, treatment, and outcome were obtained. For each perforation, an attempt was ma

36. Diverticulectomy, myotomy, and fundoplication through laparoscopy: a new option to treat epiphrenic esophageal diverticula?
OBJECTIVE: To describe the technique and the results of laparoscopic diverticulectomy combined with esophageal myotomy and antireflux wrap for epiphrenic diverticula of the esophagus. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The epiphrenic diverticulum of the esophagus is a rare disease probably caused by a longstanding impairment of the esophageal motor activity. Although
