Fundoplication

Fundoplication Surgery (GERD Treatment)

At Vedanta Superspeciality Center, we offer advanced fundoplication surgery in Bangalore for patients suffering from chronic acid reflux, also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This minimally invasive procedure is performed to strengthen the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), preventing stomach acid from flowing back into the esophagus.

Our experienced surgical team specializes in laparoscopic fundoplication, a safe and effective solution for individuals who do not respond to medications or lifestyle changes. The procedure helps relieve symptoms such as heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, and difficulty swallowing—offering long-term relief and improved quality of life.

What Is Fundoplication?

Fundoplication is a surgical technique where the top of the stomach (fundus) is wrapped around the lower esophagus to reinforce the valve between the esophagus and stomach. This helps prevent acid and food from flowing backward. The most common type is Nissen fundoplication, which offers complete 360-degree reinforcement of the LES.

When Is Fundoplication Recommended?

• Chronic acid reflux (GERD) unresponsive to medications
• Severe heartburn or regurgitation
• Barrett’s esophagus or esophageal damage from acid
• Recurrent chest discomfort related to reflux
• Difficulty sleeping due to nighttime acid reflux
• Complications like aspiration or persistent cough
