Fundoplication Surgery by Dr. Arun Prasad
Fundoplication surgery is an anti-reflux procedure commonly used to treat GERD and chronic acid reflux. During the surgery, the upper part of the stomach is wrapped around the lower food pipe to strengthen the reflux barrier.
Dr. Arun Prasad provides fundoplication surgery after detailed evaluation of reflux symptoms, endoscopy findings, acid reflux testing, esophageal manometry, hiatal hernia assessment, medical history and overall patient condition.
Choosing an experienced fundoplication surgeon is important because the right surgical approach depends on reflux severity, food pipe function, hiatal hernia size and response to medicines. Laparoscopic fundoplication may be suitable for selected patients.
