Eversion cruroplasty and collar overwrap: a novel hybrid approach for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease in children, with assessment of mid-term outcomes.
Surg Endosc

Faculty of Medicine, Pediatric Surgery, Tanta University Hospital, Tanta, 31527, Egypt.
Background: Surgical fundoplication remains integral in managing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by addressing gastroesophageal valve incompetence. This study introduces a novel hybrid approach, the Eversion Cruroplasty and Collar Overwrap (ECCO) procedure, aiming to combine benefits of conventional partial wrapping and posteromedial cardiopexy, considering gastric fundus anatomical peculiarities as an anti-reflux barrier.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of pediatric patients presenting with refractory GERD from 2021 to 2023 was conducted.
Predictors of Outcomes After Gastric Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy for Refractory Gastroparesis: A Systematic Review.

Introduction: Gastroparesis is a debilitating gastroduodenal disorder for which gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (GPOEM) has emerged as an efficacious treatment option. However, response to GPOEM varies between 50% and 80%, such that preoperative predictors of treatment success are needed to guide patient selection.
Methods: We performed a systematic review to identify predictors of clinical and functional response to GPOEM among adult patients with gastroparesis (PROSPERO: CRD42023457359).
Laparoscopic Reversal of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass with Hand-Sewn Gastro-Gastrostomy and Resection of the Alimentary Limb.

Department of Upper Gastrointestinal and Bariatric Surgery, University Hospitals Sussex (St Richard's Hospital), Chichester, UK.
Introduction: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) reversal might be necessary to alleviate refractory surgical or nutritional complications, such as postprandial hypoglycemia, malnutrition, marginal ulceration, malabsorption, chronic diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, gastro-esophageal reflux disease, chronic pain, or excessive weight loss. The surgical technique of RYGB reversal is not standardized; potential strategies include the following: (1) gastro-gastrostomy: hand-sewn technique, linear stapler, circular stapler; (2) handling of the Roux limb: reconnection or resection (if remaining intestinal length ≥ 4 m).
Case Presentation: We demonstrate the surgical technique of a laparoscopic reversal of RYGB with hand-sewn gastro-gastrostomy and resection of the alimentary limb with the aim of improving the patient's quality of life.
Efficacy of the Bridge Dry Swallowing Exercise for Refractory Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Hamamatsu City Rehabilitation Hospital, Japan.
Background Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition characterized by reflux of gastric contents, leading to damage to the esophageal mucosa and/or unpleasant symptoms, with a global prevalence of 13%. Although acid-suppressive medications are currently the most effective treatments for GERD, they may be ineffective against its symptoms. We therefore investigated the efficacy of a physical exercise program for the treatment of intractable GERD symptoms.

Cameron lesions are a unique and relatively rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding that appears in the mucosa of the gastric body in the presence of a large hiatal hernia. These lesions can be a source of occult bleeding and subsequent chronic iron deficiency anemia (IDA) but may often be missed on initial endoscopy, requiring repeat studies to diagnose. Prompt treatment for Cameron lesions is necessary to avoid the high mortality rate associated with them.
