Journal Title: International Archives of Integrated Medicine - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
Background: Gastroesophageal reflux Disease is a highly prevalent gastrointestinal (GI) disorder and is one of the most common GI illnesses encountered in clinical practice. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common conditions presenting to primary care physicians and gastroenterologists. It refers to the abnormal exposure of the oesophageal mucosa to refluxed gastric contents, including acid and pepsin, resulting in symptoms and/or tissue damage. Our aim was to compare the result of nissen and toupet procedures and to determine which procedure is better in terms of symptomatic improvement symptom recurrence and post-operative complications. Materials and methods: This was the both prospective and retrospective study included 29 patients with GERD who were operated upon by Laproscopic Nissen Fundoplication and Laproscopic Posterior Fundoplication. Demographic and clinical profiles of all patients were recorded. All patients were subjected to thorough clinical evaluation, upper GI endoscopy done in all patients, esophageal Manometry and 24 ph study done in selected patients. All preoperative data compared with the postoperative data. Results: In our series 68.9% of the patients were below 50 years. 31.03% was above 50 years. The average age of occurrence was being 41.4 years. In our series Sex distribution were 75.8% of Males and 24.1% of Females. Wound (port site) infection 5 (17.2%) was treated with antibiotics and drainage, chest infection (atelectasis) 7 (24%) treated with IV antibiotics, Pleural effusion 2 (6.8%) was treated with physiotherapy settled down 2-3 days, mild surgical emphysema 2 (6.8%) may be due to good hiatal dissection and proper esophagus mobilization, it settled down in 2 days, urinary tract infection 3 (10.3%) was treated with antibiotics, port site hematoma 3 (10.3%) was managed conservatively. Conclusion: Both Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication and Laparoscopic posterior fundoplication provides excellent results for GERD in terms of postoperative morbidity and complications.
