Patients who need fundoplication surgery complaints of
bloating, heartburn, sour taste in the mouth, nausea, and cough. Sometimes,
liquid or
maybe solid food can come to the mouth due to reflux.
The symptoms occur after heavy meals or spicy/oily food. They can occur at nighttime when the patient is sleeping. Fundoplication surgery is a process during which the
upper curve of the stomach is wrapped around the esophagus and
sewn into place in order that the lower portion of the esophagus
passes through a small tunnel of stomach muscle. This surgery strengthens the
valve between the esophagus and stomach, which stops acid from backing up into
the esophagus as easily. This allows the esophagus to heal.
Fundoplication surgery is most frequently used to treat GERD symptoms that are likely to be caused partially by a hiatal hernia that hasn't been well controlled by medicines. The surgery might also be used for a few of those who don't have a hiatal hernia.
