Watson fundoplication in children: a comparative study with Nissen fundoplication

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2007
Nissen 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.

Laparoscopic Rosetti Fundoplication

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1995
Early 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 ...

Laparoscopic fundoplication

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

Ambulatory laparoscopic fundoplication

Surgical Endoscopy, 1997
Increasingly larger series of laparoscopic fundoplications (LF) are being reported. A well-documented advantage of the laparoscopic approach is shortened hospital stay. Most centers report typical lengths of stay (LOS) for LF of 2-3 days. Our success with LF with a LOS of 1 day led to an attempt at performing LF on an ambulatory basis.Sixty-one ...

Laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication

Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2010
This article and video presents our Toupet procedure. It is a modern adaptation of Toupet's original technique. Toupet described his technique of fundoplication in 1963 (Toupet, Mem Aca Chir 89:394, 1963). He had little experience but saw the importance of a partial wrap to avoid postoperative dysphagia.

Complications of the Nissen Fundoplication

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1983
A more astute selection of patients and greater attention to technical details will preclude most complications. The first step is standardizing the technique, with avoidance of unnecessary ancillary maneuvers. Equally important is a thorough preoperative evaluation.

Robotic Nissen Fundoplication

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.

Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication

Journal of Laparoendoscopic Surgery, 1993
A technique for laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is described and a series of 11 cases is presented. The technique secures the patient to the operating table with three safety straps and the patient is then placed in a reverse Trendelenburg position with the hips flexed.

An Evaluation of the Nissen Fundoplication

Radiology, 1976
The characteristic radiological findings which follow a Nissen fundoplication are reviewed. The esophagus may be narrowed but is intrinsically normal. A pseudotumor at the medial aspect of the fundus is generally present. The history and radiographic findings can normally differentiate this defect from neoplasm or a nonoperated hiatal hernia ...

Laparoscopic Rosetti fundoplication

Surgical Endoscopy, 1994
Early experiences with laparoscopic fundoplication using the Rosetti technique are presented and compared with retrospective results from conventional fundoplication procedures. A 360 degrees floppy fundoplication was laparoscopically constructed without division of short gastric vessels. We have performed 60 consecutive procedures.
