Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Incomplete Cardia Reconstruction Cases Following Multiple Anti‐reflux Mucosectomy/Anti‐reflux Mucosal Ablation Treatments [PDF]

DEN Open
ABSTRACT Introduction Anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation (ARMA) are novel endoscopic treatments for proton pump inhibitor or potassium‐competitive acid blocker‐refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. These procedures induce scarring of the artificial ulcer at the gastric cardia, which tightens the enlarged cardiac ...
