Surgical Management of Pediatric Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is common in the pediatric population. Most cases represent physiologic GER and as the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) matures and a solid diet is introduced, many of these patients (>65%) experience spontaneous resolution of symptoms by two years of age. Those who continue to have symptoms and develop complications such as failure to thrive, secondary respiratory...
متن کاملAssociation between gastroesophageal reflux disease and coronary heart disease
In this study, we aimed to determine the association between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and subsequent coronary heart disease (CHD) development, if any, and to evaluate whether longer use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) increases the risk of CHD.Patients diagnosed with GERD between 2000 and 2011 were identified as the study cohort (n = 12,960). Patients without GERD were randomly s...
متن کاملInvestigation of extraesophageal gastroesophageal reflux disease
The most common extraesophageal manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) include chronic cough, asthma and laryngitis. There are two mechanisms proposed to explain extraesophageal syndromes caused by GERD. The first one is a direct way via irritation and/or microaspiration and the second one is an indirect, vagally mediated way. The investigation of extraesophageal manifestation...
متن کاملPediatric surgeons and gastroesophageal reflux.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Better antacid medications and the introduction of laparoscopy destabilize the indications for fundoplication. This study aims at raising a discussion among pediatric surgeons on these indications, modalities, and the results of this operation. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 252 refluxing children operated between 1992 and 2006 were divided into groups according to predomina...
متن کاملGastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
Diagnosis History. If classic symptoms of heartburn and acid regurgitation dominate a patient’s history, then they can help establish the diagnosis of GERD with sufficiently high specificity, although sensitivity remains low compared to 24-hour pH monitoring. The presence of atypical symptoms (Table 1), although common, cannot sufficiently support the clinical diagnosis of GERD [B*]. Testing....
