Live video of Laparoscopic Fundoplication
This Video Demonstrate Laparoscopic Fundoplication performed at World Laparoscopy Hospital, Gurgaon. During fundoplication surgery, the upper curve of the stomach (the fundus) is wrapped around the esophagus and sewn into place so that the lower portion of the esophagus passes through a small tunnel of stomach muscle. This surgery strengthens the valve between the esophagus and stomach (lower esophageal sphincter), which stops acid from backing up into the esophagus as easily. This allows the esophagus to heal

Laparoscopic fundoplication, also referred to as laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication, is a minimally invasive surgery commonly employed for the treatment of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). GERD occurs when stomach contents reflux (flow backward) and enter the lower end of the esophagus due to a relaxed or weakened sphincter. This sphincter, called the LES or lower esophageal sphincter, is the valve between the esophagus and the stomach.
Normally, the stomach contents do not enter the esophagus (food pipe) due to a constricted LES. In GERD, the LES is weak or relaxed enabling stomach acids to reflux into the esophagus.
