Durability of long-term outcome of laparoscopic Nissen - comparison of the results at 5 and 10 years after surgery .

Background/aims: It is not sufficiently clear whether the continued good outcomes obtained with laparoscopic Nissen operation after a short follow-up will continue after several years. The aim of our re-search was to make a comparative analysis of the quality of life and presence of symptoms 5 and 10 years after surgery.

Methodology: 123 cases (69 men and 74 women) average age of 49.
