An anterior 180° partial fundoplication effectively controls gastro-oesophageal reflux with fewer side effects than standard operations. This surgical technique offers a viable alternative for reflux management.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Procedures
  • Reflux Management

Background:

  • Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is a standard surgical treatment for gastro-oesophageal reflux.
  • This procedure can lead to troublesome side effects in some patients.
  • Partial fundoplications are recommended to minimize these risks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the surgical approach for an anterior 180° partial fundoplication.
  • To highlight its efficacy in reflux control and reduction of side effects.

Main Methods:

  • The procedure involves full dissection of the oesophageal hiatus.
  • Hiatal repair is performed with posteriorly placed sutures.
  • An anterior 180° partial fundoplication is constructed using five sutures.

Main Results:

  • Randomised trials and outcome studies confirm effective reflux control.
  • This approach demonstrates a reduced incidence of side effects compared to full fundoplication.
  • The described technique ensures secure attachment of the gastric fundus.

Conclusions:

  • Anterior 180° partial fundoplication is an effective method for surgical reflux control.
  • It offers a favorable balance between efficacy and patient side effect profile.
  • This technique represents a valuable option in the surgical management of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease.
