Summary: The functional lumen imaging probe provides objective measurements of the gastroesophageal junction during laparoscopic anti-reflux surgery. This study aimed to describe the changes in functional lumen imaging probe measurements during postoperative endoscopy and assess their long-term outcomes. The results showed that functional lumen imaging probe measurements after fundoplication were consistent over time, while patients who underwent magnetic sphincter augmentation had a tighter gastroesophageal junction.

Summary: This study reviewed data from patients who underwent GERD LNF surgery in the department from 2014 to 2018, finding a high satisfaction rate postoperatively with a mean follow-up time of approximately 50 months. The proportion of patients recommending the surgery was 78.4%.

Summary: Laparoscopic fundoplication is the standard treatment for medically refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. While both primary and reoperative fundoplication patients experience improvement in GERD-related symptoms, the degree of improvement is greater in primary patients. Perioperative morbidity rates following reoperative and primary procedures can be similar when performed by an experienced surgeon.

Summary: This study demonstrates that laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication (LNF) surgery is effective in relieving GERD-related cough. Most patients experience complete resolution of cough after the surgery and would recommend the procedure to others.

Summary: This report assessed outcomes in infants who underwent GT insertion alone or with concomitant ARP. The study found that preoperative GER was significantly higher in the GT with ARP group, and the postoperative increase in anti-reflux medications was also higher in the GT group. However, there was no significant difference in the need for a secondary procedure between patients who underwent GT alone and those who underwent GT with ARP. Overall, the study suggests that GT insertion can be considered a reasonable approach even in high-risk patients who have already undergone ARP.

Summary: The study followed up on Korean patients with GERD who underwent anti-reflux surgery for up to 1 year, finding that over 90% of patients had good symptom resolution at one year post-operation. The proportion of patients with hiatal hernia and comorbidities increased in the later period (2015-2018), with a significant decrease in operation time. Symptom control and complication rate remained comparable between the early and late periods.

Summary: The expert panel developed 7 conditional recommendations for the treatment of GERD in both adults and children, highlighting the superiority of surgical treatment over medical management in adults. However, there was insufficient evidence to make a recommendation for children. Surgical approaches, including robotic or laparoscopic, and partial or complete fundoplication, were suggested based on shared decision-making and patient values.

Summary: Standardized additional fundophrenicopexia in patients undergoing Nissen fundoplication significantly reduces postoperative dysphagia in patients without division of the short gastric vessels and reoperation rates in patients with division of the short gastric vessels. However, division of the short gastric vessels has no influence on the postoperative outcome of Nissen fundoplication.

Summary: This systematic review evaluates the safety and efficacy of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) as a revisional bariatric surgical procedure after failed anti-reflux surgery. The results show that RYGB has a good effect in improving patients' weight and reflux condition. However, the risks of perioperative and long-term complications should be minimized, and the surgery should be performed by experienced surgeons in specialized centers for selected patients.

Summary: This study compared the long-term outcomes of three different fundoplication procedures for GERD. The findings suggest that Toupet fundoplication may have a lower risk of dysphagia compared to the other two procedures, with similar outcomes in other aspects.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study evaluated 353 patients who underwent laparoscopic fundoplication (LF) for GERD between 2011 and 2017. The results showed that 16% of patients developed GERD-like symptoms after the surgery, and only 9% of these patients had recurrent pathologic acid reflux.
