title: [Antireflux endoscopic procedures].
abstract: In recent few years there took place a significant development of endoscopic antireflux procedures. There appeared a need for review of these procedures. There could be distinguished three basic directions in treatment; endoscopic sewing, injection and implantation technique based on administering polymer-based, biologically neutral substances and the technique based on applying radiation of radiowave length in the region of lower esophageal sphincter.
