Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic disease that occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter closes incompletely allowing the stomach contents to leak back or reflux into the esophagus. Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication is a minimally invasive form of anti-reflux surgery performed to restore the function of the lower esophageal sphincter.
Hiatal hernia is a condition in which part of the stomach slides through the hiatus, an opening in the diaphragm, and protrudes into the chest. Hiatal hernia surgery involves pulling the section of the stomach that has protruded into the chest back into the abdomen and making the diaphragm opening smaller to prevent recurrence.This typically involves a concurrent antireflux procedure.
