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?

Does the BÂRRX Medical’s Ablation System make a favorable impact on the most dangerous grade of Barrett’s esophagus? Have studies validated the performance and efficacy of the HALO ablation systems for treating Barrett’s esophagus? What are the optimal treatment parameters for treating HGD in patients who otherwise would be subjected to surgical esophagectomy?

Endoluminal and transluminal surgery: current status and future possibilities

Saturday, September 29, 2007

IIP > justin > ric mave:
The field of minimally invasive surgery has seen tremendous growth since the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in 1987. The key question is not how successful these techniques are currently, but rather where may they lead in the future?…The terms being coined in the literature include “incisionless,” “endoluminal,” “transluminal,” and […]
