title: [Laparoscopic combined Nissen-Rossetti fundoplication and cholecystectomy: our experience].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim of this study is to valuate the opportunity to associate both laparoscopic Nissen-Rossetti fundoplication and cholecystectomy in patients with gallbladder cholelithiasis and gastro-oesophageal acid reflux (endoscopically and pHmetrically assessed), considerating that the gallbladder removal makes duodenal-gastric reflux worse.
  
  
  METHODS
  From 2005 until 2007 we associated laparoscopic Nissen-Rossetti fundoplication and cholecystectomy in 10 patiens, who presented surgical indications for gallbladder cholelithiasis and gastro-oesophageal reflux. Clinical data, surgical procedures and post-operative complications were compared to our esperiency on the singular procedure (laparoscopic Nissen-Rossetti fundoplication and cholecystectomy). Results were valuated at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgical interventions by clinical and instrumental follow up (24-pH-metry and oesophagus-gastro-duodenoscopy).
  
  
  RESULTS
  The analysis of instrumental data of these associated procedures doesn't present significative differences between the singular surgical approach. In all the patients treated by combined procedure, the follow-up shows a normal pHmetric exam, a good control on the acid reflux by fundosplication, absence of distal oesophagitis and gastric reflux symptoms.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The association of laparoscopic Nissen-Rossetti fundoplication and laparoscopic cholecystectomy is indicated in patients who present both pathologies and needs to be considerating in relations to the good results and the low postoperatoric morbidity.
