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 ...

The American Journal of Surgery, 2004
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.

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.

European Surgery-Acta Chirurgica Austriaca, 2002
Background: Laparoscopic surgery is beneficial to the patient but challenging for the surgeon. The visual axis is not the same as the operative axis. The surgeon must manipulate long, sharp instruments through a fixed opening under the control of a two-dimensional monitor and without the help of any tactile sensation.

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1998
Symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux in children has been identified with increasing frequency over the last two decades. Agreement regarding the elements of a complete diagnostic work-up and the timing and specific surgical procedures for treating reflux has been difficult to achieve. Laparoscopic fundoplication is a routine procedure in some pediatric

Watson fundoplication in children: a comparative study with Nissen fundoplication
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2007Nissen fundoplication is the gold standard antireflux procedure in children. In 1996, one pediatric surgeon adopted the anterior fundoplication described by Watson in 1991. This procedure is reported to achieve good reflux control while permitting burping, active vomiting, and reducing gas bloat.

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 ...

Laparoscopic Rosetti Fundoplication
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1995Early experiences with laparoscopic fundoplication using the Rosetti technique are presented and compared with retrospective results from conventional fundoplication procedures.We have performed 70 consecutive laparoscopic procedures. Conversion to open surgery was done in seven cases because of anatomical reasons and in two because of peroperative ...
