Hiatal hernia, Barrett's esophagus, and long-term symptom control after laparoscopic fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux.

Laparoscopic fundoplication for symptomatic GERD provided a long-lasting abolition of reflux symptoms in 231 of 271 (85 %) patients. HH ≥ 3 cm and long-segment BE were shown as independent prognostic factors favoring recurrence.
