BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (LNF) has been increasingly performed for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. The outcomes of LNF for patients with concurrent symptoms other than heartburn are unclear. The purpose of the present paper was to review the outcomes of LNF performed by one surgeon over 4 years and compare the outcomes of patients with reflux symptoms with those of patients having reflux symptoms plus atypical symptoms.
METHODS: The records of a consecutive series of 90 patients were reviewed. Preoperative symptoms were defined as typical (heartburn and reflux) or atypical (other symptoms, e.g. cough, atypical chest pain, choking). At the time of follow up an independent observer interviewed patients, and collected data on current symptoms and patient satisfaction. A questionnaire of current symptoms and patient satisfaction was completed. A satisfaction score from 1 to 10 was given by patients, with 1 being very unsatisfied and 10 being very satisfied.
RESULTS: Of the 90 patients, 97% had typical symptoms and 56% had concurrent atypical symptoms. Eighty-three of 90 patients were contacted; typical reflux symptoms improved in 95% of patients whereas atypical symptoms improved in only 54%. Overall, the mean satisfaction score was 8.7. Patients with atypical symptoms had a lower satisfaction score of 8.0 versus a satisfaction score of 9.0 for patients with only typical symptoms (P < 0.05). Patients with a satisfaction score < 8.0 had a higher rate of atypical symptoms (75%) than patients with a satisfaction score > or = 8 (50%).
CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication controlled typical reflux symptoms very well but atypical symptoms were improved in only approximately 50%. A lower satisfaction score was associated with preoperative atypical symptoms.
