Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication - 06/03/20
, Reginald Bell, MD, FACS bRésumé |
GERD is a spectrum disorder, and treatment should be individualized to the patient’s anatomic alterations. Trans-oral incisionless fundoplication (TIF 2.0) is an endoscopic procedure which reduces EGJ distensibility, thereby decreasing tLESRs, and also creates a 3-cm high pressure zone at the distal esophagus in the configuration of a flap valve. As it produces a partial fundoplication with a controlled valve diameter, gas can still escape from the stomach, minimizing the side-effect of gas-bloat. Herein we discuss the rationale, mechanism of action, patient selection, step-by-step procedure, safety and efficacy data, it’s use with concomitant laparoscopic hernia repair, and future emerging indications.
