| Abstract: | BackgroundAn unbuffered postprandial proximal gastric acid pocket (PPGAP) has been noticed in normal individuals and patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The role of gastric anatomy in the physiology of the PPGAP remains unclear. It is also unclear whether change in the PPGAP may contribute to GERD control. This study aims to analyze the presence of PPGAP in patients submitted to Nissen fundoplication. |
