Long-Term Results After Laparoscopic Reoperation for Failed Antireflux Procedure

  • First Online:
Hiatal Hernia Surgery

Abstract

Laparoscopic antireflux surgery [1] was first introduced in 1991. Since then, it has rapidly shown significant benefits over the conventional approach, and it is now well accepted as the gold standard treatment for severe gastroesophageal reflux [2]. Most of the published clinical series show excellent outcomes in terms of symptoms in 85–90% of cases up to 10 years after surgery [3–6].
