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?

Are the effects of daily GERD medication raising concerns that there are additional detrimental effects of pharmaceuticals that should be avoided? Is EsophyX a technology that advances the treatment of GERD forward? Is the discontinue of GERD medications especially important for women in the face of osteoporosis?

Lee Swanstrom Performs New Incisionless Procedure to Treat Weight Re-gain After Gastric Bypass > Incisionless Surgical Technique That Reduces Size of Stomach Pouch and Stoma > Gastrointestinal and Minimally Invasive Surgery GMIS > The Oregon Clinic
Tuesday, December 4, 2007
Will the new surgical technique help gastric bypass patients manage their weight? Does this new technique allow surgical revisions that are less expensive, less technically difficult to perform and less risky for the by-pass patient? Can the new and less invasive procedure correct a key cause of weight regain and get the patients back on […]
