title: Nissen fundoplication for gastro-oesophageal reflux.
abstract: Twenty-four patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux were treated by Nissen fundoplication over a three-year period. In 22 patients the symptoms of heartburn, reflux, or dysphagia were abolished or dramatically improved. The operative technique, complications, and reasons for the less successful outcome in the remaining two cases are discussed.
