GERD procedures: when and what?
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2014 November
BACKGROUND: The topic of "when and what" for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) procedures centers on the correct indications for antireflux surgery gleaned from a thorough preoperative evaluation (the "when") and on the right antireflux operation to perform once the ideal candidate is identified (the "what").
AIMS: The goals of this evidence-based review are the following: (1) to identify the key indications for surgery and predictors of good outcomes in the initial evaluation of patients with symptoms of GERD; (2) to describe the operations for GERD in the armamentarium of the general surgeon and their indications, as well as the technical elements of the operation; and (3) to describe the optimal surgical treatment of GERD and obesity when the two diseases coexist.
