Abstract: | Introduction While it is well established that antireflux surgery is effective in relieving typical gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
symptoms such as heartburn and regurgitation, it is currently unclear whether atypical symptoms (cough, hoarseness, wheeze)
foreshadow a less satisfactory outcome following laparoscopic antireflux surgery (LARS). The purpose of this study is to critically
analyze the clinical outcomes of atypical symptoms in patients undergoing LARS. |
