Loading player ... The player requires Flash Player plugin
Case description
Laparoscopic antireflux surgery is a minimally invasive approach to correct GERD. Most commonly a laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is performed. In this procedure the weakened lower esophageal sphincter is supported by wrapping the top portion of the stomach around the lower esophagus as a bolster. At the same time if there is a hiatal hernia or part of the stomach residing in the chest cavity, this hernia will be returned to the abdomen and the abdominal opening secured.
