Antireflux Surgery (click for worldwide facilities list): Surgery for acid reflux is considered as an option if the patient’s GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) symptoms do not improve with medications, or return after medication is stopped, lifelong use of medication is needed, the patient does not or is unable to take medication regularly for a prolonged time, or there is severe damage to the esophagus due to acid reflux. The purpose of antireflux surgery is to repair the stomach valve that is allowing acid to leak into the esophagus.
Laparoscopic nissen fundoplication is considered a safe and effective treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease when previous medical management is unsuccessful.
In most cases, the operation performed to correct gastroesophageal reflux is a procedure called fundoplication where the upper portion of the stomach (the fundus) is wrapped (plicated) around the lower portion of the esophagus and anchored securely below the diaphragm. A laparoscopic fundoplication the surgeon operates without making a large incision to open the abdomen sparing a long hospital stay and prolonged recovery time of open surgery. With less associated pain after surgery, less chance of wound infection, and smaller scars because of the smaller incisions, laparoscopic fundoplication is the favored surgery as long as there is no counterinterdiction. A c fundoplication operation is effective long term in stopping esophageal reflux and relieving its symptoms.
