Choosing the Optimal Surgical Treatment for Reflux Esophagitis

The authors once again raised the problem of GERD, as despite the development of antireflux surgery, the results of complex treatment of patients with reflux esophagitis leave much to be desired. On the one hand, the effectiveness of conservative treatment is low, on the other hand, there are contraindications to bougie or balloon dilation sessions, as well as an increased risk of anesthetic complications in the event of surgery. Based on the results of their own research, the authors have proven the greater effectiveness of robot-assisted operations compared to traditional laparoscopic techniques.
