Managing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is difficult because it is a chronic relapsing disease. Surgical management of GERD is indicated only after medical management has failed. In patients who have the most advanced forms of GERD, surgical therapy is good for treating symptoms and healing esophagitis, but far from a gold standard. Freedom from symptoms, side effects, medical therapy, ...
