Abstract

Introduction: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a frequent digestive disorder that presents with a broad spectrum of symptoms. Global consensus on which patients should be selected for anti-reflux surgery is lacking.

Areas covered: This evidence-based review will analyze current indications for anti-reflux surgery, outcomes of the operation, and potential side effects.

Expert commentary: Treatment of GERD has three main purposes: control symptoms, improve quality of life, and prevent potential serious complications such as bleeding, esophageal stenosis, Barrett's esophagus, and esophageal adenocarcinoma. Although medical therapy is effective in the majority of patients, some might require anti-reflux surgery in order to achieve these goals. Adequate patient selection for anti-reflux surgery is critical to obtain optimal outcomes. Most patients undergoing a fundoplication have adequate long-term symptomatic relief. However, potential side effects of anti-reflux surgery should also be discussed with patients to help manage expectations from the operation.

期刊介绍: The enormous health and economic burden of gastrointestinal disease worldwide warrants a sharp focus on the etiology, epidemiology, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and development of new therapies. By the end of the last century we had seen enormous advances, both in technologies to visualize disease and in curative therapies in areas such as gastric ulcer, with the advent first of the H2-antagonists and then the proton pump inhibitors - clear examples of how advances in medicine can massively benefit the patient. Nevertheless, specialists face ongoing challenges from a wide array of diseases of diverse etiology.
