Our Experience with Transoral Incisionless Plication of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: NOTES Procedure

Abstract: It can be summarized that both NOTES TIF procedures are, after the initial learning curve, safe and effective methods for treatment of GERD, allowing substantial shortening of hospital stay. The effect of both procedures was sustained over 12 months. Longer follow-up is necessary to verify efficacy for more years.

“…Two studies evaluated patients with post-cardiac surgery vasoplegia. 18,28 Vasopressin was the intervention in 13 trials, 18,23,24,[27][28][29][30][33][34][35][36][37]39 whereas 9 studied terlipressin, [20][21][22]25,26,32,35,38,41 1 studied selepressin, 40 and 1 studied pituitrin (a mixture of vasopressin and oxytocin). 31 One 3-group study compared vasopressin vs terlipressin vs norepinephrine alone.…”

“…The first method, EsophyX, consists of the reconstruction of the gastroesophageal valve. The effectiveness of this method has been confirmed in several studies, compared to pharmacotherapy, or even with Nissen fundoplication, which is considered the gold standard for treatment [8][9][10]. The second procedure by Stretta applies radiofrequency energy in the form of radio waves to the lower oesophageal sphincter and the gastric cardia.…”

“…Finally, a group from the Czech Republic recently reported a single-center, randomized trial comparing transoral incisionless fundoplication and laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication for the treatment of GERD. 38 Thirty-four patients were enrolled in the endoscopic fundoplication group-of which the Plicator was used for 18 patients and the EsophyX for 16 patients-and 18 patients underwent laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. At 12 months after the procedure, 26 patients in the endoscopic fundoplication group and 14 patients in the laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication group had been seen in follow-up.…”
