GERD Surgery
When your GERD symptoms can’t be controlled by lifestyle adjustments and medications, you may want to think about surgery. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) often happens when the acid produced in your stomach often finds its way back up to your throat. This may bring some comfort or discomfort but it can also cause harm. Frequently, the root cause is a feeble or damaged lower esophageal sphincter (LES), which is the valve that prevents refluxing of acids from the stomach.
In most cases, surgery for GERD aims at strengthening or repairing this valve. Fundoplication is the most frequently performed operation; it involves wrapping the upper part of the stomach around the LES, thereby making it tighter in order to stop acid from escaping into the throat. An alternative procedure called LINX surgery uses small magnets encircling around this sphincter in order to prevent such backward flow of juices from happening. Both techniques seek to alleviate or get rid of symptoms so that you can continue living well without relying on medications all his life.
Your doctor will discuss these options with you, determining which one looks like it has more benefits than others based on your severity of GERD, general health conditions and personal choices.
