Background: Treatment options for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) that is unresponsive to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) remain limited. Therefore, we compared the therapeutic effects of anti-reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and Stretta radiofrequency (SRF) for intractable GERD in over 400 individuals who underwent either procedure.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study between 2016 and 2023 to evaluate the effectiveness of SRF and ARMS treatments for refractory GERD.
