Procedure Information
Anti-Reflux Surgery (Hiatus Hernia/GORD)▼
Surgery for hiatus hernia may involve pulling the stomach down into the abdomen and making the opening in the diaphragm smaller, reconstructing a weak esophageal sphincter, or removing the hernia sac. Can be performed laparoscopically.
Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication10% or more weight loss is not uncommon following this type of surgery▼
An operative procedure using the keyhole (laparoscopic) method to fix reflux problems. During fundoplication, the top part of your stomach — called the fundus — is folded and sewn around the lower oesophageal sphincter. The aim is to prevent acid from spilling out of the stomach into the gullet by creating a valve effect at the junction of the oesophagus and stomach.
