Background: About 20% of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) have severely impaired esophageal peristalsis in addition to an incompetent lower esophageal sphincter. In these patients a total fundoplication corrects the abnormal reflux, but it is often associated with postoperative dysphagia and gas bloat syndrome. We studied the efficacy of partial fundoplication in such patients. Methods: A partial fundoplication (240°–270°) was performed laparoscopically in 26 patients (11 men, 15 women; mean age 50.5 years) with GERD (mean DeMeester score: 92 ± 16) in whom manometry demonstrated severely abnormal esophageal peristalsis. Results: All operations were completed laparoscopically and the patients were dicharged an average of 39 h after surgery. The preoperative symptoms resolved or improved in all patients, and no patient developed dysphagia or gas bloat syndrome. Postoperative pH monitoring showed complete or nearly complete resolution of the abnormal reflux in every patient. Conclusions: Partial fundoplication is an excellent treatment for patients with GERD and weak peristalsis, for it corrects the abnormal reflux and avoids postoperative dysphagia. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: About a decade ago, partial (240 degrees) fundoplication became popular for treating gastroesophageal reflux disease in cases where the patient's primary esophageal peristalsis was weak. A total (360 degrees) fundoplication was reserved for patients with normal peristalsis (tailored approach). The theory was that partial fundoplication was an adequate antireflux measure, and by posing less resistance for the weak esophageal peristalsis to overcome, it would give rise to less dysphagia. Short-term results seemed to confirm these ideas. STUDY DESIGN: This study reports the longterm followup of patients in whom a tailored approach (type of wrap chosen to match esophageal peristalsis) was used, and the results of a nonselective approach, using a total fundoplication regardless of the amplitude of esophageal peristalsis. We analyzed clinical and laboratory findings in 357 patients who had an operation for gastroesophageal reflux disease between October 1992 and November 2002. Group 1 was composed of 235 patients in whom a tailored approach was used between October 1992 and December 1999 (141 patients, partial fundoplication and 94 patients, total fundoplication). Group 2 contained 122 patients in whom a nonselective approach was used (total fundoplication regardless of quality of peristalsis). RESULTS: In group 1, heartburn from reflux (ie, pH monitoring test was abnormal) recurred in 19% of patients after partial fundoplication and in 4% after total fundoplication. In group 2, heartburn recurred in 4% of patients after total fundoplication. The incidence of postoperative dysphagia was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: These data show that laparoscopic partial fundoplication was less effective than total fundoplication in curing gastroesophageal reflux disease, and compared with a partial (240 degrees) fundoplication, a total (360 degrees) fundoplication was not followed by more dysphagia, even when esophageal peristalsis was weak. 相似文献

Laparoscopic toupet fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease with poor esophageal body motility 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:5
Richard J. Lund M.D. Gerold J. Wetcher M.D. Frank Raiser M.D. Karl Glaser M.D. Galen Perdikis M.D. Michael Gadenstätter M.D. Natsuya Katada M.D. Charles J. Filipi M.D. Ronald A. Hinder M.D. Ph.D. 《Journal of gastrointestinal surgery》1997,1(4):301-308
Impaired esophageal body motility is a complication of chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In patients with this
disease, a 360-degree fundoplication may result in severe postoperative dysphagia. Forty-six patients with GERD who had a
weak lower esophageal sphincter pressure and a positive acid reflux score associated with impaired esophageal body peristalsis
in the distal esophagus (amplitude <30 mm Hg and >10% simultaneous or interrupted waves) were selected to undergo laparoscopic
Toupet fundoplication. They were compared with 16 similar patients with poor esophageal body function who underwent Nissen
fundoplication. The patients who underwent Toupet fundoplication had less dysphagia than those who had the Nissen procedure
(9% vs. 44%;P=0.0041). Twenty-four-hour ambulatory pH monitoring and esophageal manometry were repeated in 31 Toupet patients 6 months
after surgery. Percentage of time of esophageal exposure to pH <4.0, DeMeester reflux score, lower esophageal pressure, intra-abdominal
length, vector volume, and distal esophageal amplitude all improved significantly after surgery. Ninety-one percent of patients
were free of reflux symptoms. The laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication provides an effective antireflux barrier according to
manometric, pH, and symptom criteria. It avoids potential postoperative dysphagia in patients with weak esophageal peristalsis
and results teria. It avoids potential postoperative dysphagia in patients with weak esophageal peristalsis and results in
improved esophageal body function 6 months after, surgery.

Introduction In patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) it is still controversial as to which type of antireflux procedure—the Nissen or the partial posterior fundoplication—offers the lower rate of side effects in the long term.Patients and methods In this follow-up study the Nissen fundoplication was performed only in GERD patients with normal oesophageal peristalsis. The partial posterior fundoplication was preserved for patients with weak peristalsis. Only patients with effective postoperative control of GERD were included in the study. The study groups consisted of 77 patients who underwent the Nissen fundoplication and 132 patients who underwent partial posterior fundoplication. Clinical assessment of side effects was performed after a median of 52 months following surgery. Manometric assessment of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and of esophageal peristalsis was achieved 6 months after surgery.Results Side effects such as dysphagia, bloating, inability to belch and vomit, epigastric pain and early satiety were significantly more common after the Nissen fundoplication than after partial posterior fundoplication. Improvement of the antireflux barrier was equal in both groups; however, LES relaxation was incomplete following the Nissen fundoplication but normal after partial posterior fundoplication. Partial posterior fundoplication resulted in improved oesophageal peristalsis, whereas the Nissen fundoplication caused slight impairment of peristalsis.Conclusions Partial posterior fundoplication is a more physiological antireflux procedure than the Nissen fundoplication, and, therefore, this operation has now become our preferred technique for all GERD patients. 相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: Laparoscopic anterior 90 degrees partial fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux is associated with a lower incidence of postoperative dysphagia and other adverse effects compared with laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. DESIGN: A multicenter, prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Nine university teaching hospitals in 6 major cities in Australia and New Zealand. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred twelve patients with proven gastroesophageal reflux disease presenting for laparoscopic fundoplication were randomized to undergo either a Nissen (52 patients) or an anterior 90 degrees partial procedure (60 patients). Patients with esophageal motility disorders, patients requiring a concurrent abdominal procedure, and patients who had undergone previous antireflux surgery were excluded from this study. INTERVENTIONS: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with division of the short gastric vessels or laparoscopic anterior 90 degrees partial fundoplication. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Independent assessment of dysphagia, heartburn, and overall satisfaction 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery using multiple clinical grading systems. Objective measurement of esophageal manometric parameters, esophageal acid exposure, and endoscopic assessment. RESULTS: Postoperative dysphagia, and wind-related adverse effects were less common after a laparoscopic anterior 90 degrees partial fundoplication. Relief of heartburn was better following laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. Overall satisfaction was better after anterior 90 degrees partial fundoplication. Lower esophageal sphincter pressure, acid exposure, and endoscopy findings were similar for both procedures. CONCLUSIONS: At the 6-month follow-up, laparoscopic anterior 90 degrees culine partial fundoplication is followed by fewer adverse effects than laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with full fundal mobilization, and it achieves a higher rate of satisfaction with the overall outcome. However, this is offset to some extent by a greater likelihood of recurrent gastroesophageal reflux symptoms. 相似文献

Laparoscopic partial posterior fundoplication provides excellent intermediate results in GERD patients with impaired esophageal peristalsis. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
BACKGROUND: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is frequently associated with impaired esophageal peristalsis, and many authorities consider this condition not suitable for Nissen fundoplication. METHODS: To investigate the outcome of antireflux surgery in the presence of impaired esophageal peristalsis, 78 consecutive GERD patients with poor esophageal contractility who underwent laparoscopic partial posterior fundoplication were studied. A standardized questionnaire, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, esophageal manometry, and 24-hour pH monitoring were performed preoperatively and at a median of 31 months (range 6-57 months) postoperatively. Esophageal motility was analyzed for contraction amplitudes in the distal two thirds of the esophagus, frequency of peristaltic, simultaneous, and interrupted waves, and the total number of defective propagations. In addition, parameters defining the function of the lower esophageal sphincter were evaluated. RESULTS: After antireflux surgery, 76 patients (97%) were free of heartburn and regurgitation and had no esophagitis on endoscopy. The rate of dysphagia decreased from 49% preoperatively to 10% postoperatively (P < .001). Features defining impaired esophageal body motility improved significantly after antireflux surgery. The median DeMeester score on 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring decreased from 33.3 to 1.1 (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Partial posterior fundoplication provides an effective antireflux barrier in patients with impaired esophageal body motility. Postoperative dysphagia is diminished, probably because of improved esophageal body function. 相似文献

A total laparoscopic fundoplication has become the procedure of choice for the surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease in patients with normal esophageal motility, with reduced postoperative pain, faster recovery and similar long-term outcomes compared to conventional open total fundoplication. Most controversial surgical aspects are the division of the short gastric vessels and the insertion of a bougie to calibrate the wrap. The anterior 180° and the posterior partial fundoplications lead to similar control of heartburn when compared to total fundoplication with lower risk of dysphagia. However, when performed, 24-h pH monitoring shows pathologic reflux more frequently after partial than total fundoplication. Disappointing results are achieved by anterior 90° partial fundoplication. More recently, a magnetic sphincter augmentation with the LINX Reflux Management System (Torax Medical) and the lower esophageal sphincter Electrical Stimulation (EndoStim) have been developed, seeking for a durable and effective minimally invasive alternative to laparoscopic fundoplication for the treatment of reflux. Both devices seem to be promising, with very low postoperative complications and good short-term functional outcomes. Large randomized controlled trials comparing them with laparoscopic fundoplication over a long period of follow-up are needed to verify their indications and outcomes. 相似文献

Background Abnormal esophageal body motility often accompanies gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Although the effect of surgery
on the pressure and behavior of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) has been extensively studied, it still is unclear whether
a successful fundoplication improves esophageal peristalsis.
Methods The pre- and postoperative esophageal manometries of 71 patients who underwent a successful laparoscopic fundoplication (postoperative
DeMeester score < 14.7) were reviewed. The patients were grouped according to the type of fundoplication (partial vs total)
and preoperative esophageal peristalsis (normal vs abnormal): group A (partial fundoplication and abnormal esophageal peristalsis;
n = 16), group B (total fundoplication and normal peristalsis; n = 41), and group C (total fundoplication and abnormal peristalsis; n = 14).
Results The LES pressure was increased in all the groups. A significant increase in amplitude of peristalsis was noted in groups A
and C. Normalization of peristalsis was achieved in 31% of the group A patients and 86% of the group C patients. No changes
occurred in group B.
Conclusions Laparoscopic fundoplication increased LES pressure and the strength of esophageal peristalsis in patients with abnormal preoperative
esophageal motility. A total fundoplication resulted in normalization of peristalsis in the majority of patients.

Total fundoplication is the operation of choice for patients with gastroesophageal reflux and defective peristalsis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Background: Partial fundoplication has traditionally been indicated for patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
who have defective peristalsis (DP). Because partial fundoplication had been reported to be a less effective means of controlling
acid reflux than total fundoplication, in 1997 we stopped performing partial fundoplication for patients with DP and switched
to a floppy total fundoplication. This study analyzes the results of our new strategy and compares it to our former approach.
Methods: We performed a partial fundoplication in 39 patients with DP (distal amplitude >40% of swallows) between 1994 and
1997 and a total fundoplication in 57 patients between 1997 and 2000. Symptoms scores derived from a standard questionnaire
with a scale of 0–4 manometry, and 24-h pH monitoring were completed preoperatively in 86 patients and postoperatively in
40 patients. Results: Heartburn scores improved in both groups (preoperative, 2.8; postoperative, 0.65; p<0.05). Dysphagia
was 1.1 preoperatively and 0.62 postoperatively (p=NS) in the partial fundoplication group and 1.2 preoperatively and 0.3
postoperatively (p<0.05) in the total fundoplication group. Furthermore, none of the patients in the total fundoplication
group developed new dysphagia and none required dilatation. Distal esophageal acid exposure normalized in both groups after
operative treatment (median DeMeester score:72.3 vs 11.3, p<0.05, For partial fundoplication; 57.1 vs 6.3, p<0.05, For total
fundoplication). Distal esophageal amplitudes averaged 27.8 mmHg preoperatively and 35.6 mmHg (p = NS) in the partial fundoplication
group, they averaged 28.2 mmHg preoperatively vs 49.0 mmHg postoperatively (p<0.005) in the total fundoplication group. Two
patients with a previous partial fundoplication required a conversion to a total fundoplication. No postoperative dilation
was required in either group. Conclusions: Our study shows that both a partial and a total fundoplication are effective in
controlling the symptoms of GERD in patients with defective peristalsis. Dysphagia improves significantly after total fundoplication
but not after partial fundoplication. Although both operations brought acid reflux to within normal limits, the effect was
more pronounced with total fundoplication. Total, but not partial, fundoplication produced a significant increase in amplitude
of esophageal peristalsis, which may explain the subjective improvement during deglution. Therefore, fundoplication should
be the treatment of choice in patients with GERD and defective peristalsis. 相似文献

Introduction It has been postulated that in patients with connective tissue disorders (CTD) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD),
esophageal function is generally deteriorated, often with complete absence of peristalsis. This belief has led to the common
recommendation of avoiding antireflux surgery for fear of creating or worsening dysphagia.
Methods We hypothesized that in most patients with CTD and GERD: (a) esophageal function is often preserved; (b) peristalsis is more
frequently absent when end-stage lung disease (ESLD) is also present; (c) a tailored surgical approach (partial or total fundoplication)
based on the findings of esophageal manometry allows control of reflux symptoms without a high incidence of postoperative
dysphagia. Forty-eight patients with CTD were evaluated by esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring (EFT). Twenty patients
(group A) had EFT because of foregut symptoms, and 28 patients with ESLD (group B) had EFT as part of the lung transplant
evaluation. Two hundred and eighty-six consecutive patients with GERD by pH monitoring served as a control group (group C).
A laparoscopic fundoplication was performed in two group A patients (total), eight group B patients (three patients total,
five patients partial) and in all group C patients (total).
Results Esophageal peristalsis was preserved in all patients with CTD and GERD. In contrast, peristalsis was absent in about half
of patients when ESLD was also present. A tailored surgical approach resulted in control of reflux symptoms in all patients.
One patient only developed postoperative dysphagia, which resolved with two Savary dilatations.
Conclusion These data show that esophageal motor function is preserved in most patients with CTD, so that they should be offered antireflux
surgery early in the course of their disease to prevent esophageal and respiratory complications. In patients with ESLD in
whom peristalsis is absent, a partial rather than a total fundoplication should be performed, as it allows control of reflux
symptoms while avoiding postoperative dysphagia.

The effect of medical therapy and antireflux surgery on dysphagia in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease without esophageal stricture 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Wetscher GJ Glaser K Gadenstaetter M Profanter C Hinder RA 《American journal of surgery》1999,177(3):189-192
BACKGROUND: Poor esophageal body motility and trapping of the hernial sac by the hiatal crura are the major pathomechanisms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)-induced dysphagia. There is only little knowledge of the effect of medical therapy or antireflux surgery in reflux-induced dysphagia. METHODS: Fifty-nine consecutive GERD patients with dysphagia were studied by means of a symptom questionnaire, endoscopy, barium swallow, esophageal manometry, and 24-hour pH monitoring of the esophagus. Patients had proton pump inhibitor therapy and cisapride for 6 months. After GERD relapsed following withdrawal of medical therapy, 41 patients decided to have antireflux surgery performed. The laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication was chosen in 12 patients with normal esophageal body motility and the laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication in 29 patients with impaired peristalsis. Dysphagia was assessed prior to treatment, at 6 months of medical therapy, and at 6 months after surgery. RESULTS: Heartburn and esophagitis were effectively treated by medical and surgical therapy. Only surgery improved regurgitation. Dysphagia improved in all patients following surgery but only in 16 patients (27.1%) following medical therapy. Esophageal peristalsis was strengthened following antireflux surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Medical therapy fails to control gastroesophageal reflux as it does not inhibit regurgitation. Thus, it has little effect on reflux-induced dysphagia. Surgery controls reflux and improves esophageal peristalsis. This may contribute to its superiority over medical therapy in the treatment of GERD-induced dysphagia. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: A Nissen fundoplication for gastrooesophageal reflux disease may more often lead to persistent dysphagia than a Toupet fundoplication. The aim of this study was to assess the results of laparoscopic Nissen versus Toupet fundoplication in patients with reflux disease and impaired distal esophageal motility. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In 15 patients a laparoscopic Nissen and in 17 a laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication was carried out. Criteria for an impaired motility of the distal esophagus were a mean amplitude of < 30 mm Hg of swallow-induced contractions, or > 33% non-propulsive or non-transmitted contraction waves. Before surgery, heartburn, dysphagia, regurgitation and other symptoms were scored and endoscopic, manometric and 24 hour pH-metric investigations performed. Patients were reinvestigated 3 to 30 (median 15) months after Nissen and 3 to 42 (median 7) months after Toupet fundoplication. RESULTS: After Nissen as well as after Toupet fundoplication heartburn was significantly less frequent, whereas dysphagia and all other symptom-scores remained unchanged. In the 26 patients reinvestigated manometrically, the resting pressure of the lower esophageal sphincter was significantly higher following both operations and the residual sphincter pressure upon swallowing higher only after Nissen fundoplication. The amplitude of swallow-induced contractions and the percentages of non-propulsive and non-transmitted contraction waves were not significantly changed after either operation. In the 23 patients restudied pH-metrically, reflux activity was significantly reduced after both Nissen and Toupet fundoplication. CONCLUSION: In patients with reflux disease and impaired distal esophageal motility, laparoscopic Nissen and Toupet fundoplication both yielded satisfactory results and neither operation led to increased dysphagia. 相似文献

Introduction
A laparoscopic fundoplication is considered today the procedure of choice for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).Discussion
Several eponyms are used in the literature to denote different antireflux operations: Nissen, Nissen-Rossetti, Toupet, Lind, Guarner, Hill, and Dor. We feel that it is more important to focus on the technical elements which make a fundoplication effective and long lasting. The type of fundoplication (total vs. partial) is tailored to the quality of esophageal peristalsis as documented by the preoperative manometry. In the USA, a partial fundoplication is chosen only for patients with very impaired or absent esophageal peristalsis.Conclusion
This article describes the technique of laparoscopic total fundoplication for GERD. Partial fundoplication is performed following the same technical elements as the total fundoplication. A 240° to 270° wrap rather than a 360° wrap is performed. 相似文献14.
Laparoscopic partial posterior (Toupet) fundoplication improves esophageal bolus propagation on scintigraphy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

BACKGROUND: Impaired esophageal clearance is important in the pathogenesis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It is unknown whether esophageal clearance improves following antireflux surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (NF), laparoscopic partial posterior (Toupet) fundoplication (PPF) or medical therapy on esophageal clearance. METHODS: This was a prospective nonrandomized crossover study. Sixty patients were evaluated with endoscopy, esophageal manometry, radionuclide scanning of esophageal emptying, and assessment of symptoms prior to surgery or medical therapy and 6 months after treatment. In 20 GERD patients with normal esophageal peristalsis an NF was performed, in 20 patients with impaired esophageal peristalsis a PPF was chosen, and 20 patients received proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment. RESULTS: On endoscopy, esophagitis had resolved in all patients after surgery; two patients with medical therapy still had esophagitis. On manometry, a significant improvement of lower esophageal sphincter competence was seen in both surgical groups. LES relaxation was complete after PPF, but incomplete after NF. Esophageal peristalsis did not improve after medical therapy, was significantly improved after PPF, but had worsened after NF. On scintigraphic esophageal emptying for solid meals, there was no improvement after medical therapy but a significant improvement after PPF. A significant deterioration of esophageal emptying was observed after NF. There was a strong correlation between scintigraphic and manometric evaluation of peristalsis preoperatively (r(s) = -0.87, p < 0.05) and postoperatively (r(s) = -0.82, p < 0.05). There was no change in dysphagia after medical therapy and after NF but a significant improvement after PPF. Globus sensation was significantly improved after PPF but did not change after medical therapy or NF. Postprandial bloating and inability to belch were significantly more common after NF than after PPF. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic partial posterior (Toupet) fundoplication can restore a preoperatively defective esophageal bolus propagation on scintigraphy with the same antireflux effect as the laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication, but with lower side-effects. 相似文献

Improved outcome after extended gastric myotomy for achalasia 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Oelschlager BK Chang L Pellegrini CA 《Archives of surgery (Chicago, Ill. : 1960)》2003,138(5):490-5; discussion 495-7
HYPOTHESIS: There is general agreement that a Heller myotomy should extend 6 to 7 cm above the gastroesophageal junction. Results of most previous studies have recommended that the myotomy extend 1 to 1.5 cm below the gastroesophageal junction. We speculated that the effectiveness of the operation could be improved if a longer, 3-cm myotomy was carried out below the gastroesophageal junction, as it would more completely obliterate the lower esophageal sphincter. We, therefore, changed our technique in 1998. Concurrently, we converted from a Dor fundoplication to a Toupet fundoplication. This study analyzes the results of our new strategy. DESIGN: A case series using a prospectively maintained database. SETTING: Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS: One hundred ten consecutive patients with achalasia undergoing laparoscopic Heller myotomy. INTERVENTION: We analyzed the course of 52 patients treated with a standard laparoscopic esophagogastric myotomy (1.5 cm in the stomach) and a Dor fundoplication between September 1, 1994, and August 31, 1998, and 58 treated with an extended gastric myotomy (3 cm below the gastroesophageal junction) and a Toupet fundoplication between September 1, 1998, and August 31, 2001. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Esophageal function testing (esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring), symptom questionnaire (frequency and severity), and postoperative interventions required. RESULTS: Postoperatively the lower esophageal sphincter pressure was significantly lower after extended gastric myotomy and a Toupet fundoplication vs standard myotomy and a Dor fundoplication (9.5 vs 15.8 mm Hg). Dysphagia was both less frequent (1.2 vs 2.1) and less severe (visual analog scale, 3.2 vs 5.3) after extended gastric myotomy and Toupet fundoplication. In the standard laparoscopic esophagogastric myotomy and a Dor fundoplication group, 9 patients (17%) had recurrent, severe dysphagia, which was treated by dilation in 5 patients and by reoperation in 4 patients. In the extended gastric myotomy and Toupet fundoplication group, 2 patients (3%) developed recurrent dysphagia that resolved with dilatation. There were no reoperations in the extended gastric myotomy and Toupet fundoplication group. No difference was noted in the frequency of heartburn (1.3 vs 1.7), regurgitation (0.3 vs 0.8), and chest pain (0.3 vs 0.6), nor was there a difference between the 2 groups in proximal (1.7% vs 2.3%) and distal (6.0% vs 5.9%) esophageal acid exposure. CONCLUSION: An extended gastric myotomy (3 cm) more effectively disrupts the lower esophageal sphincter, thus improving the results of surgical therapy for achalasia for dysphagia without increasing the rate of abnormal gastroesophageal reflux provided that a Toupet fundoplication is added. 相似文献

Laparoscopic vs open approach for Nissen fundoplication 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chrysos E Tsiaoussis J Athanasakis E Zoras O Vassilakis JS Xynos E 《Surgical endoscopy》2002,16(12):1679-1684
Background: Several studies, most of them nonrandomized, have shown similar functional results for both laparoscopic and open
Nissen fundoplication, the operation of choice for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods: A total
of 106 patients with documented GERD were randomized to receive either a laparoscopic or an open Nissen fundoplication. Preoperative
and postoperative investigations included clinical assessment, esophagogram, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, esophageal
manometry, and 24-h ambulatory pHmetry. Results: Both approaches were successful in controlling reflux. There was an overall
improvement in esophageal peristalsis and an increase in lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure in both groups. Open Nissen
fundoplication was associated with a significantly increased rate of wound (p <0.001) and respiratory (p <0.05) complications.
Hospitalization was also longer after the open technique (p <0.001). At 3-month follow-up, although the rate of postoperative
dysphagia was similar for the two approaches, the open approach was associated with a significantly higher incidence of postprandial
epigastric fullness (p <0.05) and bloating syndrome (p <0.01). Conclusions: The open and laparoscopic approaches for the Nissen
fundoplication are equally effective in controlling GERD. The open approach is associated with a significantly higher rate
of wound and respiratory complications and, at early stages, an increased rate of postprandial epigastric fullness and abdominal
bloating. The dysphagia rate is similar with both methods. 相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: Prosthetic crural closure does not adversely influence esophageal body motility. In most patients, postoperative increased dysphagia resolves spontaneously during the first months after surgery. DESIGN: Prospective randomized trial. We compared patients who underwent laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with simple sutured hiatal closure and those who underwent laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with prosthetic hiatal closure. SETTING: University-affiliated community hospital. PATIENTS: Forty consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease. INTERVENTIONS: A 360 degrees Nissen fundoplication with simple sutured crura (n = 20; nonmesh group) vs the same procedure with posterior 1 x 3-cm polypropylene onlay mesh prosthesis (n = 20; mesh group). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Recurrences; postoperative dysphagia rate; localization, length, and pressure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES); results of 24-hour pH monitoring; esophageal body motility; peristalsis; and esophageal amplitude of contraction and interrupted waves. RESULTS: Preoperatively, both groups had pathological LES pressure and DeMeester scores. These values improved significantly (P < .01) after surgery and remained stable at 1 year after surgery. Patients in the nonmesh group had a significantly lower LES pressure 1 year after surgery compared with those in the mesh group. There were no significant differences in postoperative mean LES length (4.1 vs 3.8 cm), LES relaxation (93.4% vs 92.4%), and intra-abdominal LES length (2.1 vs 2.1 cm). Patients in the mesh group had fewer simultaneous waves and interrupted waves 1 year after surgery, but the difference between groups was not significant. There were no significant differences in interrupted waves and amplitude of contraction between groups 1 year after surgery. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with prosthetic crural closure does not impair postoperative esophageal body motility compared with laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication with simple suture hiatal closure, although it is associated with a higher rate of short-term dysphagia. 相似文献

Patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and disordered esophageal motility are at risk for postoperative dysphagia,
and are often treated with partial (270-degree) fundoplication as a strategy to minimize postoperative swallowing difficulties.
Complete (360-degree) fundoplication, however, may provide more effective and durable reflux protection over time. Recently
we reported that postfundoplication dysphagia is uncommon, regardless of preoperative manometric status and type of fundoplication.
To determine whether esophageal function improves after fundoplication, we measured postoperative motility in patients in
whom disordered esophageal motility had been documented before fundoplication. Forty-eight of 262 patients who underwent laparoscopic
fundoplication between 1995 and 2000 satisfied preoperative manometric criteria for disordered esophageal motility (distal
esophageal peristaltic amplitude ≤30 mm Hg and/or peristaltic frequency ≤80%). Of these, 19 had preoperative manometric assessment
at our facility and consented to repeat study. Fifteen (79%) of these patients had a complete fun-doplication and four (21%)
had a partial fundoplication. Each patient underwent repeat four-channel esophageal manometry 29.5 ± 18.4 months (mean ± SD)
after fundoplication. Distal esophageal peristaltic amplitude and peristaltic frequency were compared to preoperative data
by paired t test. After fun-doplication, mean peristaltic amplitude in the distal esophagus increased by 47% (56.8 ± 30.9 mm Hg to 83.5
± 36.5 mm Hg; P < 0.001) and peristaltic frequency improved by 33% (66.4 ± 28.7% to 87.6 ± 16.3%; P< 0.01). Normal esophageal motor function was present in 14 patients (74%) after fundoplication, whereas in five patients
the esophageal motor function remained abnormal (2 improved, 1 worsened, and 2 remained unchanged). Three patients with preoperative
peristaltic frequencies of 0%, 10%, and 20% improved to 84%, 88%, and 50%, respectively, after fundoplication. In most GERD
patients with esophageal dysmotility, fundoplication improves the amplitude and frequency of esophageal peristalsis, suggesting
refluxate has an etiologic role in motor dysfunction. These data, along with prior data showing that postoperative dysphagia
is not common, imply that surgeons should apply complete fun-doplication liberally in patients with disordered preoperative
esophageal motility.

Complete fundoplication is not associated with increased dysphagia in patients with abnormal esophageal motility 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1

Abnormal esophageal motility is a relative contraindication to complete (360-degree) fundoplication because of a purported
risk of postoperative dysphagia. Partial fimdoplication, however, may be associated with increased postoperative esophageal
acid exposure. Our aim was to determine if complete fundoplication is associated with increased postoperative dysphagia in
patients with abnormal esophageal motor function. Medical records of 140 patients (79 females; mean age 48 ±1.1 years) who
underwent fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) were reviewed retrospectively to document demographic
data, symptoms, and diagnostic test results. Of the 126 patients who underwent complete fundoplication, 25 met manometric
criteria for abnormal esophageal motility (≤30 mm Hg mean distal esophageal body pressure or ≤80% peristalsis), 68 had normal
esophageal function, and 33 had incomplete manometric data and were therefore excluded from analysis. Of the 11 patients who
underwent partial fundoplication, eight met criteria for abnormal esophageal motility, two had normal esophageal function,
and one had incomplete data and was therefore excluded. After a median follow-up of 2 years (range 0.5 to 5 years), patients
were asked to report heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and overall satisfaction using a standardized scoring scale. Complete
responses were obtained in 72%. Sixty-five patients who underwent complete fundoplication and had manometric data available
responded (46 normal manometry; 19 abnormal manometry). Outcomes were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. After complete
fundoplication, similar postoperative heartburn, swallowing, and overall satisfaction were reported by patients with normal
and abnormal esophageal motility. Likewise, similar outcomes were reported after partial fundoplication. This retrospective
study found equally low dysphagia rates regardless of baseline esophageal motility; therefore a randomized trial comparing
complete versus partial fundoplication in patients with abnormal esophageal motility is warranted.

: The goal of this study was to determine if the outcome of antireflux surgery can be improved by: (1) conducting a careful preoperative workup to characterize gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in the individual patient; and (2) tailoring the operation to the results of the preoperative function tests.
: Sixty-eight patients had operations for GERD by minimally invasive techniques.
: A Rossetti fundoplication was performed in 22 patients. Sixty-eight percent became asymptomatic. Twenty-seven percent developed dysphagia or gas bloat. Thirty-five patients had a Nissen fundoplication. Ninety-one percent are asymptomatic. Eleven patients with severe abnormalities of esophageal peristalsis underwent a Guarner fundoplication with relief of symptoms in 82% of patients. No patients in the Nissen or Guarner group developed postoperative persistent dysphagia or gas bloat. A pyloromyotomy was performed in 3 patients because of severe delayed gastric emptying.
: Minimally invasive surgery for GERD gives good-to-excellent results even in patients with abnormal esophageal body function, provided that the operation is tailored to the individual patient based on the results of the preoperative function tests. 相似文献
