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.

Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication

Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2008
The 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, 2005
Gastroesophageal 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, 1997
Failure 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, 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.

CT of Fundoplication

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1991
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.

OPEN NISSEN FUNDOPLICATION

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, 1991
Nissen 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 ...
