Pediatric Esophageal Biomechanics and Remodeling: Integrating Distensibility and Compliance Beyond Luminal Diameter

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 2613-2622, September 2026.
Esophageal distensibility and compliance provide physiologic information beyond luminal diameter alone in pediatric esophageal disease. This review proposes a practical biomechanics‐informed framework integrating FLIP assessment into interpretation of dysphagia, esophageal remodeling, dilation response, and therapeutic decision‐making in children ...

Fundoplication for hiatus hernia

Journal of British Surgery, 1973
Abstract Eighty-eight patients who had symptomatic hiatus hernia were treated by fundoplication during 1967-70. Worth-while symptomatic benefit was achieved in 88 per cent of the patients who had reflux only and in 80 per cent of those who had radiologically demonstrable strictures as well as reflux. Both as a primary and ‘

Chronic dysphagia following laparoscopic fundoplication

, 2000
Background: Many surgeons practise tailored laparoscopic antireflux surgery in an attempt to prevent postoperative dysphagia. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of 360 degrees fundoplication (Nissen) or 270 degrees fundoplication (Toupet),

Meta-analysis of laparoscopic posterior and anterior fundoplication for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease

, 2010
Although laparoscopic posterior (Nissen) fundoplication (LPF) has the proven efficacy for controlling gastro-oesophgeal reflux surgically, there remain problems with postoperative dysphagia and the inability to belch or vomit.

Redo fundoplication in infants and children with recurrent gastroesophageal reflux [PDF]

, 1991
The Nissen fundoplication is well established as the surgical treatment for medically refractory gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in childhood. Recurrent GER following fundoplication is a challenging problem with a reported incidence ranging from 0% to 12%.
