Does the development of innovative NOTES devices for improving the function of the lower esophageal sphincter LES continue? What role will Polymethylmethacrylate PMMA beads play in the thicken of the tissue and the strengthen of the LES when the microbeads are implanted in local tissue adjacent to the LES? Will the promising work in Endoscopic […]

Does the results of this study demonstrate that most patients undergoing primary laparoscopic fundoplication have near normal GERD−HRQL scores? Are the patients satisfied with their decision to undergo surgery at long-term follow-up? Are the results following redo laparoscopic fundoplication as good as with primary laparoscopic fundoplication?
