Reflux-Surgery

Reflux-Surgery

Surgical and conventional treatment of Relux diseases takes place in the Sachsenhausen Hospital Reflux Center.

We offer our patients comprehensive reflux diagnostics (manometry, ph-metry, gastroscopy, swallowing examination). After the examination, it is decided which procedure is best for the patient (hiatoplasty, fundaplication, LINX implant)

Operation

After a comprehensive investigation, the operation takes place. The duration of the operation varies between 30-60 minutes. Length of stay in Sachsenhausen Hospital between 3 and 6 days.

Follow-up check

As a rule, an outpatient follow-up check should be performed in the first 6-12 months after the operation. A conversation with the attending physician takes place. It is checked whether the behavioral rain is observed until the eating behavior has adapted to the new situation. For patients with Barrett's esophagus, it is still important to monitor the course endoscopically. In some cases, after 3-4 months for no apparent cause, difficulty swallowing or pain behind the breastbone occurs. A new introduction is recommended here.
