Condition: Gastroesophageal Reflux · Esophageal Motility Disorders · Upper Gastrointestinal Disorder · Sponsor: Prof Urs Zingg
This is a combined retro- and prospective, monocentric study. All patients who underwent or are planned for laparoscopic partial fundoplication (180° anterior or 270° posterior) between 2020-2023 are assessed for preoperative ineffective esophageal motility (IEM). The main hypothesis is, that preoperative oesophageal motility disorders, especially hypo-contractility or failed peristalsis, are caused by gastro-oesophageal reflux. Therefore, postoperative manometry after partial wrap fundoplication (270° posterior, 180° anterior) shows a decrease in comparison to preoperative motility disorders. The primary objective of this study is to examine the postoperative esophageal motility in patients with known preoperative motility disorders. Secondary endpoints are the presence of other oesophageal motility disorders pre- vs. postoperatively (including new onset disorders), the assessment of the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) pre- vs. postoperatively, and more. If IEM is present preoperatively, patients are contacted at least 1 year after surgery and will be informed about the study and asked to participate. In case of agreement, they are invited to the study site. They undergo high-resolution manometry 18-24 months postoperatively (study intervention).
