Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication
Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2008The dissection is started performing a crural dissection with visualization and preservation of both vagus nerves, followed by circumferential dissection of the esophagus at the gastro-esophageal junction. Adequate intra-mediastinal mobilization of the esophagus is performed to obtain 3-4 cm of intra-abdominal esophagus without undue downward traction ...

Robotic laparoscopic fundoplication
Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2005Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a very common disorder, and both medical and surgical treatments have shown outstanding results. Whereas proton pump inhibitors are the mainstay of treatment, laparoscopic fundoplication has become a very attractive alternative due to its efficacy and low morbidity.

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.

Laparoscopic Rosetti fundoplication
Surgical Endoscopy, 1994Early 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.

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.

Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 1995
The Nissen fundoplication currently is the most commonly used antireflux operation. It may be performed using a transabdominal or a transthoracic approach. Early postoperative complications are not infrequent and include dysphagia and the "gas bloat" syndrome. Excellent or good long-term results are obtained in more than 85% of patients.

Dysphagia after nissen fundoplication
Dysphagia, 1991Nissen fundoplication is a commonly used antireflux operation. After this operation symptoms such as dysphagia, inability to belch and vomit, and gas bloating are frequently reported in the literature. In 32 patients who underwent Nissen fundoplication 3.5-18 years ago, postprocedure dysphagia was studied using conventional manometry and 24 h ...

Failure to obtain preoperative esophageal manometry in patients being considered for antireflux surgery can result in immediate persistent postoperative dysphagia due to a missed diagnosis of achalasia. We describe the clinical assessment and management of a case of delayed postoperative dysphagia due to a "slipped" fundoplication, which is contrasted ...

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2003
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 ...
