CT of Nissen's fundoplication [PDF]
Abdominal Imaging, 1997 The aim of this work is to describe the computed tomographic (CT) anatomy in patients who underwent Nissen's fundoplication. Forty patients (mean age = 61 years) with peptic esophagitis (nine cases), refractory gastroesophageal reflux (11 cases), and hiatal hernia (20 cases) were studied.

Clinics in Perinatology, 2017
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common condition in infants. Symptoms from pathologic GERD include regurgitation, irritability when feeding, failure to thrive, and respiratory problems. Treatment typically starts with dietary modifications and postural changes. Antireflux medications may then be added.

Fundoplication and gastrostomy
Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 1998Fundoplication and gastrostomy are among the most frequently performed procedures in infants and children. A laparoscopic approach with decreased morbidity has made fundoplication (with or without gastrostomy) more acceptable for patients who have significant gastroesophageal reflux disorders.

Surgical Endoscopy, 2002
Minimally invasive surgery continues to evolve, with an emphasis on developing new techniques and applying new technology to surgical procedures. The purpose of this study was to compare the short-term outcomes of needlescopic fundoplication with those of conventional laparoscopic fundoplication.Between January 1999 and June 2000, 38 needlescopic ...

Five percent of patients who undergo fundoplication will require reoperation. The cause of this high failure rate and the best management for these patients remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to identify patterns and causes of failure of primary antireflux procedures.Retrospective review of the medical records of patients who ...

To determine the CT findings postfundoplication, we retrospectively compared CT in 22 postfundoplication patients with CT in 22 patients with unrepaired hiatal hernias and gastroesophageal (GE) junction abnormalities and 24 patients with gastric or esophageal carcinoma involving the GE junction.

Journal of Laparoendoscopic Surgery, 1996
Most reports on laparoscopic fundoplication are from large, tertiary referral medical centers. Presented here is an experience by a single surgeon (M.E.F.) in community hospitals with 74 cases. All patients had esophagitis. All but two patients were Visick grade IV off medication. All patients had an incompetent lower esophageal sphicter.

Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 2006
In GERD patients in whom pharmacological therapies are ineffective and anti-reflux surgery is not indicated, a viable option could be proposed. To date, several endoscopic antireflux procedures, involving sewing, injection and/or implant, and radiofrequency are available.

Modified Nissen fundoplication for reduction of fundoplication failure
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1997Failure of the Nissen fundoplication can be secondary to disruption of the wrap or slippage of the stomach upward within the wrap. A modification of the Nissen fundoplication was devised and implemented between 1982 and 1995 to eliminate these complications. This report describes the modification and the results.

Fundoplication is the standard surgical approach to gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in a child. Although successful in many patients, there is a significant risk of complications and failure, especially in high-risk patients such as those with certain types of associated anomalies, diffuse motility disorders, chronic pulmonary disease, neurologic ...
