INTRODUCTION: Surgical gastric fundoplication is an effective treatment option for gastroesophageal reflux disease. In contrast to acid suppression, fundoplication nearly abolishes all types of reflux, acid and nonacid. However, in some cases, lasting side effects of the procedure may overshadow its positive effects. It has remained difficult to determine which patients are the most suitable candidates for fundoplication.
AREAS COVERED: This review aims to evaluate the available data on preoperative factors that are associated with the outcome of fundoplication and to determine which combination of patient characteristics and preoperative test results provides optimal selection. In addition, we assess the need for tailoring the procedure on the basis of the preoperative quality of esophageal peristalsis.
EXPERT OPINION: Surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease is underutilized as it may provide an excellent option for a subset of GERD patients. It is not sensible to restrict surgical treatment to patients who do not respond to acid suppression. However, meticulous patient selection is key. Most importantly, surgical treatment should not be considered in patients in whom there is no convincing evidence that the symptoms are caused by reflux. Impaired esophageal peristalsis should not be regarded as a contraindication against fundoplication.
