| Popis: | Objective: To explore the true short esophagus (TSE) frequency and longterm results of patients undergoing gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) or hiatus hernia (HH) surgery. Background: The existence and treatment of TSE during GERD/HH surgery is controversial. Satisfactory long-term results have been achieved with and without surgical techniques dedicated to TSE. Methods: In 311 consecutive patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery for GERD/HH, the distance between the endoscopically-localized gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and the apex of the diaphragmatic hiatus after maximal thoracic esophagus mobilization was measured. A standard Nissen fundoplication (SN) was performed in cases with an abdominal length >1.5 cm; in cases of TSE (abdominal length |
