title: Gastroesophageal reflux disease after bariatric procedures.
abstract: GERD is a significant comorbidity in bariatric patients preoperatively and postoperatively. Surgeons should be aware of appropriate evaluation, procedures choices, and management options. Revision surgery for reflux symptoms is common and appropriate anatomy and outcomes should be considered when offering these interventions to our patients. Patient selection is important to ensure avoiding postoperative development or worsening of GERD.
