Nissen Fundoplication for GERD and Hiatal Hernias
Nissen fundoplication is a surgical procedure used to treat severe cases of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and hiatal hernias. During the procedure, the upper part of the stomach is wrapped around the lower esophagus to strengthen the lower esophageal sphincter, which helps prevent the backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus. This wrap creates a barrier that reduces the occurrence of acid reflux and its associated symptoms. Nissen fundoplication is considered an effective treatment option for individuals who do not respond well to medication or lifestyle changes. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if Nissen fundoplication is appropriate for your specific condition.
Dor Treatment for Acid Reflux Relief and Improved Swallowing
Dor fundoplication is a surgical procedure that involves wrapping only part of the stomach around the lower esophagus to reduce acid reflux symptoms. The wrap is made on the front (anterior) side of the esophagus rather than completely surrounding it, like in a Nissen fundoplication. This procedure is often recommended for individuals who have difficulty swallowing or have had previous surgeries that may affect stomach motility. It is also preferred for individuals who may need further procedures in the future. A healthcare professional can help determine if Dor fundoplication is the best option for your specific condition.
Toupet Fundoplication for Improved Digestive Health
Toupet fundoplication is a surgical procedure where part of the stomach is wrapped around the lower esophagus, but only on the back (posterior) side. This type of fundoplication is recommended for individuals with hiatal hernias or reflux symptoms that are primarily related to the stomach rather than the esophagus. Toupet fundoplication may also be recommended for individuals who have had previous surgeries that could affect stomach motility. Consult with our healthcare professionals to determine if Toupet fundoplication is appropriate for you. We offer a range of surgical procedures with an emphasis on safety, effectiveness, and patient comfort.
