Surgical results of laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease with special reference to recurrence

Abstract

Background

Surgical results of GERD have mainly been reported from the Western countries, with a few reports found in Japan. We examined the surgical results of laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication and clarify the characteristics of recurrent cases.

Methods

The subjects included 375 patients who underwent laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication from June 1997 to December 2016 as the initial surgery. Patient characteristics, pathophysiology, and surgical results were examined. In addition, we compared the patient characteristics and pathophysiology of recurrent cases in comparison with non-recurrent cases.

Results

Age 59 (43–70) and male 211 (56.3%). The operation time was 141 min (113–180) and intraoperative complications were found to have onset in 13 subjects (3.5%). Dysphagia after surgery was found in 18 cases (4.8%). The A factor (the degree of hiatal hernia), P factor (the degree of esophagitis), and pH < 4 holding time significantly improved after surgery compared with prior to surgery (p < 0.001 for all), while the LES lengths and abdominal LES lengths were extended (p < 0.001 for each). Recurrence was found in 48 patients (15.1%) among the 318 patients for whom we could confirm the presence or absence of recurrence. The A factor, P factor, and pH < 4 holding time prior to surgery were, respectively, higher in the recurrence group (p = 0.031, p < 0.001, p < 0.001).

Conclusions

Laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication for GERD could be performed safely, with a response rate as good as 85%. Compared with non-recurrent cases, preoperative clinical conditions such as esophageal hiatal hernia, reflux esophagitis, and acid reflux time were all advanced in recurrent cases.
