Revision of failed traditional fundoplication using EsophyX® transoral fundoplication [PDF]

Surgical Endoscopy, 2012
Laparoscopic revision of failed traditional fundoplication is difficult and involves risk of gastric, esophageal, and vagal nerve injury that is higher than that of the primary fundoplication. This study assessed feasibility and clinical outcomes of the transoral approach to revision of loose Nissen.Between November 2009 and August 2011, a total of 11 ...

Paraesophageal hernia: to fundoplicate or not? [PDF]

Annals of Translational Medicine, 2021
The need for an antireflux procedure during repair of a paraesophageal hernia (PEH) has been the subject of a long-standing controversy. With most centers now performing routine fundoplication during PEH repair, high-quality data on whether crural repair alone or using a mesh may provide adequate anti-reflux effect is still scarce.
