Background And Aim: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (LNF) is the gold standard of antireflux surgery. Up to 30% of patients experience symptoms after surgery, with insufficient information available. The main objective is to evaluate epidemiological, clinical, and functional factors associated with symptoms after LNP.

New procedures like the robotic approach require proficiency to ensure patient safety and satisfactory functional results. Hiatal hernia surgery serves as a suitable training procedure for upper gastrointestinal tract surgeons transitioning to the robotic approach. This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of implementing the robotic approach in hiatal hernia surgery at a tertiary hospital and to assess the associated learning curve.

Introduction: High-resolution manometry (HRM) allows assessment of esophagogastric junction (EGJ) disruption. While type 3 EGJ predicts definitive gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), type 2 EGJ is less clearly implicated in GERD pathogenesis. This study aimed to characterize physiologic findings in type 2 EGJ to determine if the HRM-based Milan Score can define GERD within type 2 EGJ.

Background: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common adverse effect after metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS). Identifying patients with preexisting GERD is critical for preoperative planning. The American Foregut Society (AFS) recently proposed a new endoscopic classification system for objective assessment of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) integrity, building upon the Hill classification.

Background: Although the optimal extent of lymph node dissection in esophagogastric junction cancer (EGJC) has been reported, the efficacy of mediastinal lymph node dissection remains unclear. We aimed to identify risk factors for mediastinal lymph node metastasis and its prognostic impact in patients with EGJC.

Methods: A total of 100 consecutive patients who underwent curative surgery for EGJC were eligible.
