Clinical Overview & Treatment Understanding
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and hiatal hernia occur when the lower esophageal sphincter weakens, allowing stomach acid to splash upward into the throat, causing heartburn, chest pain, and chronic coughing. Laparoscopic Nissen or Toupet Fundoplication tightens the muscle valve by wrapping the upper stomach (fundus) around the lower esophagus, curing acid reflux permanently.
