title: [Outcome of Nissen fundoplication using intraoperative manometry].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Through reviewing the surgical experience in the treatment of sliding hiatus hernia, the effectiveness of Nissen fundoplication using intraoperative oesophageal manometry has been evaluated.
  
  
  METHODS
  There were 84 undergoing the transabdominal surgery who have been divided into three groups: 27 patients were in the Nissen group, 39 in the floppy Nissen group, 18 in the intraoperative-oesophageal-manometry group.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There is no postoperative death. Complications occurred in 5 patients within one month after operation: in the Nissen group, 2 patients suffered from severe dysphagia and 1 from regurgitation; In the floppy Nissen group, 2 patients had regurgitation; In the intraoperative-oesophageal-manometry group, there were no one suffering severe dysphagia or regurgitation. During the long-term follow-up, excellent functional results were also observed in the intraoperative-oesophageal-manometry group, whereas 2 patients suffered from severe dysphagia and 1 from nausea in the Nissen group and 1 patient recurred in the floppy Nissen group.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The Nissen fundoplication (NF) should be suitable to be done in patients with sliding hiatus hernia. But if there are possibilities to perform intraoperative oesophageal manometry during the operation of anti-reflux, side effects can be decreased to the least. Intraoperative manometry is useful in standardizing the tightness of the wrap in NF. And it will contribute to reducing or avoiding the happening of complications.
