- Abstract
Better understanding of the pathogenesis of gastroesophageal reflux disease in recent years has not been accompanied by appreciable advances in the design of antireflux operations. In many cases, operations are still being performed just as they were described 30 years ago. It is important now to go beyond the eponymous procedures traditionally associated with antireflux operations and to identify the technical elements that contribute to effective and durable fundoplications.
