- Abstract : Background: The side‐effects of Nissen fundoplication have led to modifications, including partial fundoplications such as an anterior 90° wrap. Five‐year follow‐up of two randomized trials suggested fewer side‐effects following anterior 90° partial fundoplication, but better reflux control after Nissen fundoplication. However, longer‐term outcomes have not been reported. This study combined data from previous trials to determine 10‐year outcomes. Methods: From 1999 to 2003, 191 patients were enrolled in two randomized trials comparing anterior 90° partial versus Nissen fundoplication. Trial protocols were similar, and data were combined to determine long‐term clinical outcomes. Patients completed annual questionnaires assessing dysphagia, heartburn, medications, satisfaction and other symptoms. Visual analogue scales (0–10), a composite dysphagia score (0–45) and yes/no responses were used. Results: Of the 191 patients, 152 (79·6 per cent) were available for 10‐year follow‐up. After anterior 90° fundoplication, patients reported less dysphagia to solids (score 2·03 versus 3·18 for the Nissen procedure; P = 0·037). Heartburn scores were lower after Nissen fundoplication (1·90 versus 2·83 for anterior 90° fundoplication; P = 0·035) and fewer patients required proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) (22 versus 39 per cent respectively; P = 0·035). Satisfaction scores were similar for both anterior 90° and Nissen groups (7·45 versus 7·36 respectively; P = 0·566), and theAbstract : Background: The side‐effects of Nissen fundoplication have led to modifications, including partial fundoplications such as an anterior 90° wrap.

Satisfaction scores were similar for both anterior 90° and Nissen groups (7·45 versus 7·36 respectively; P = 0·566), and the majority considered their original decision for surgery to be correct (86 versus 84 per cent; P = 0·818). Conclusion: After 10 years, both procedures achieved similar success as measured by global satisfaction measures. Patients who had a Nissen fundoplication reported more dysphagia, whereas more heartburn and PPI consumption were reported after anterior 90° fundoplication.

Abstract : Outcomes at 10 years of follow‐up from two randomized trials of anterior 90° partial fundoplication versus Nissen fundoplication were combined, and demonstrated that both fundoplication types achieve effective long‐term symptom control, but with trade‐offs between reflux control and side‐effects. As different patients might prioritize these outcomes differently, the type of fundoplication can be tailored to each patient's aims and expectations. Comparable outcomes after a decade Abstract : Antecedentes: Para evitar los efectos secundarios de la fundoplicatura de Nissen se han propuesto modificaciones técnicas, incluyendo las fundoplicaturas parciales como la plicatura anterior de 90°. El seguimiento a 5 años de dos ensayos aleatorizados sugiere menos efectos secundarios tras la fundoplicatura anterior de 90°, pero mejor control del reflujo con la fundoplicatura de Nissen. Sin embargo, no se han descrito los resultados a largo plazo. Este estudio combinó datos de dos ensayos previos para determinar los resultados a 10 años. Métodos: Entre 1999 y 2003, se reclutaron 191 pacientes en dos ensayos aleatorizados que comparaban la fundoplicatura parcial anterior 90° versus fundoplicatura de Nissen. Los protocolos de ambos ensayos fueron similares, y los datos se combinaron para determinar los resultados clínicos a largo plazo. Los pacientes completaron cuestionarios anuales que evaluaban disfagia, pirosis, medicaciones, satisfacción y otros síntomas. Se utilizaron escalas analógicas visuales (0‐10), una variable compuesta para la puntuación de disfagia (0‐45) y respuestas sí/no. Resultados: De los 191 pacientes, 152 (79, 6%) pudieron seguirse a los 10 años. Tras la fundoplicatura anterior de 90°, los pacientes refirieron menos disfagia a sólidos (2, 03 versus 3, 18, P = 0, 037). Las puntuaciones de pirosis fueron inferiores tras fundoplicatura de Nissen (2, 83 versus 1, 90, P = 0, 035) y menos pacientes tomaban inhibidores de la bomba de protones ( proton pump inhibitors, PPIs; 22% versus 39%, P = 0, 035). Las puntuaciones de satisfacción fueron similares para ambos grupos de fundoplicatura anterior 90° y Nissen (7, 45 versus 7, 36, P = 0, 566), y la mayoría consideró su decisión original para la cirugía como correcta (86, 1% versus. 83, 8%, P = 0, 818). Las tasas de reoperación fueron similares (10, 0% versus 8, 8%). Conclusión: Después de 10 años, ambos procedimientos lograron un éxito similar medido con medidas de satisfacción global. Los pacientes con fundoplicatura de Nissen referían más disfagia mientras que los pacientes con fundoplicatura anterior 90 0 describieron más pirosis y consumo de PPIs. … (more)
