[Treatment of benign stricture of the throat using Thal's fundoplasty combined with fundoplication].
In seven years we have operated eleven patients with the benign stricture of the distal part of esophagus secondary to the gastroesophageal reflux. We have made Thal's fundoplastic operation in the combination with the fundoplication operation. We are contented with the late results of the operation in eight observed patients. In five cases results of the operation are very good and patients consume food without difficulties. In three cases we have observed stenosis after the operation, successfully treated by dilatation. All these patients were rentogenologically examined and thus patent anastomosis without gastroesophageal reflux was prooved. High mortality (two patients) and morbidity ater the operation are conditional with the age of patients, their bad physical condition due to the malnutrition and the extensive operation. Thus clear indication and the utilization of the conservative treatment of strictures is demanded.
