Abstract
The article is devoted to the use of a new method in open and laparoscopic surgery of gastroesophageal reflux disease and hiatal hernia. The essence of the technique is to fix the esophageal-gastric junction under the diaphragm with a combined tape of xenopericardium and propylene or propylene only. Comparative data on the results of Nissen operations in 126 patients and the new method in 258 patients are presented. The authors used an original comparative outcome assessment scale, which combines the main negative outcomes encountered after operations for gastroesophageal reflux disease and hiatal hernia, as well as Visick scale. The advantage of the new technique has been statistically reliably proven, where the absence of such severe complications as dysphagia, diarrhea, and stasis in its use is especially emphasized.
