Abstract

Nissen fundoplication is offered to patients who have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) refractory to maximal medical management. The open transabdominal Nissen fundoplication which is an effective elective anti-reflux procedure has now been replaced by its laparoscopic counterpart. This chapter lists the indications, essential steps, common technical variations, and complications of the procedure. It provides a detailed operative dictation template.
