Belsey Mark IV 위바닥주름술은 이전의 역류 방지 수술이 실패하여 재수술을 해야 하는 경우 혹은 식도 열공 탈장이 오래 되어 유착이 있는 경우에 적응증이 된다. 본 증례는 식도 열공 탈장과 GERD로 진단되어 Nissen 위바닥 주름술을 시행하였으나 실패하였고 재수술을 시도하였지만 수술 부위의 유착이 심하여 수술적 접근이 불가능하였다. 저자들은 흉강을 통하여 Belsey Mark IV 위바닥주름술을 실시하였고, 수술 후 증상과 영양상태의 호전을 보인 1예를 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Fundoplication is a common surgical procedure for gastroesophageal reflux Disease (GERD). Recently the procedure has been performed with increased frequency laparoscopically. The aim of this study is to compare laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (LNF) and open Nissen fundoplication (ONF) for GERD in children. We studied retrospectively the 88 pediatric patients who underwent the Nissen fundoplication for GERD as primary antireflux surgery from 1994 and 2009. ONF was performed in 34 cases and LNF was in 54 cases. 58 patients have neurologic impairment. Time to initial food intake after the surgery were reduced in the LNF group (p= 0.032). Recurrent GERD symptom occurred in one patient in LNF group and four patients in ONF group within 1 year after the surgery (p= 0.012). There were no statistically significant differences in post operative morbidity and mortality between both groups. In conclusion, our practice of Nissen fundoplication indicates that LNF takes priority in most pediatric patients.

Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) commonly occurs after Nissen fundoplication in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease. Since the understanding of its pathogenesis is insufficient, an effective method of management has not yet been suggested. The authors report a case of a 16-year-old girl with DGE after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication and treated with intravenous injection of low dose erythromycin.

Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a recurrent, long-term gastrointestinal condition characterised by the abnormal reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus. Heartburn is the most dominant symptom, which can be life long and can considerably reduce quality of life. The main goals of treatment are to alleviate symptoms and prevent relapses, esophageal stricture and adenocarcinoma. This paper presents a review comparing the effectiveness of omeprazole with Nissen fundoplication surgery for the treatment of GERD. Nissen fundoplication is more effective in controlling heartburn symptoms, healing esophagitis and preventing relapses than omeprazole. Quality of life, in terms of productivity and ability to work, is difficult to assess in the omeprazole group and, as a result, a comparison of this aspect is limited. Although fundoplication is expensive in the short term, it is more cost-effective than omeprazole. Nurses need to be aware of the effectiveness of omeprazole and fundoplication to provide patients with accurate information, which assists patients in decision making regarding treatment options.

덤핑증후군은 소아에서 위식도역류의 치료로 위저추벽성형술을 시행하는 경우에 잘 발생하는 질환으로 당 부하 검사를 통하여 식사 직후에 나타나는 고혈당과 뒤이어 나타나는 저혈당을 보임으로써 진단될 수 있으며, 생 옥수수 전분을 포함한 식이 요법으로 효과적으로 치료될 수 있다. 저자들은 위저추벽성형술을 시행 받은 뒤에 덤핑증후군이 발생한 1례를 경험하였고, 본 질환이 소아에서 위저추벽성형술과 같은 위 수술 후에 수유장애가 있을 경우 반드시 의심해보아야 할 질환이라고 사료되어 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Fundoplication is accepted as an effective treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. The recent results of laparoscopic fundoplication demonstrated safety and less morbidity, shorter hospital stay and less pulmonary complication compared to the open operation. Laparoscopic fundoplication has been our first choice of operation for gastroesophageal reflux disease since 2003. Among 29 cases, there were 2 conversion cases because of severe distension of transverse colon and hepatomegaly. We studied 27 consecutive patients operated upon from January 2003 through December 2004. There were 15 boys and 12 girls, ages from 1.5 months to 12 years (median 25.3 months). Body weight ranged from 2.9 kg to 37 kg (median 9.8 kg). Neurological abnormalities were present in 23 patients. Indications for surgery included medically refractory reflux associated with vomiting, pneumopathy, otorhinolaryngologic pathology, failure to thrive, esophagitis, apnea and bradycardia. We used 4-5 trocars of 5 mm or 12 mm with $30^{\circ}$ telescope and performed the Nissen technique in all patients. In neurological impaired patients, gastrostomy tube was placed at the time of fundoplication. Median operative time was 130 minutes (70 - 300 minutes). There was no mortality nor intraoperative complication. Twenty-six patients were followed for median of 19 months (8 - 31 months). Four patients (15.4 %), who were all neurological impaired, developed recurrent symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease. Two of these patients had reoperation (1 laparoscopic approach, 1 open method). There were significant increases in body weight in 11 patients after fundoplication. Laparoscopic fundoplication is acceptable as a safe and effective method for gastroesophageal reflux disease.

위식도역류질환은 서구에선 매우 유병률이 높으며 우리나라에서도 식생활의 서구화로 인해 유병률이 증가하고 있다. 최근 최소침습수술이 발달함에 따라 복강경을 이용하여 수술할 경우 미용효과, 단기재원기간 및 일상생활로의 조기복귀 등의 장점이 있어 장기적인 약물치료보다는 최소침습법에 의한 수술의 시행이 늘어날 것으로 예상된다. 저자들은 복강경을 이용하여 횡격막 탈장 및 탈장을 동반한 위식도역류성 질환에 대해 시행한 니센 위저추벽성형술 및 콜리스 위성형술 치험을 바탕으로 수술수기를 중심으로 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Purpose: Gastroesophageal reflux in infant is a physiological process. However, surgery is performed in high risk infants with severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) when medical management fails. This study focuses on efficacy and safety of Nissen fundoplication for GERD in infants under age 12 months. Methods: This study was a retrospective case analysis of 11 neonates and infants under 12 months of age who underwent Nissen fundoplication following a failure of medical treatment between June 2010 and June 2013 at Pusan National University Children's Hospital. The records were reviewed to determine the effect of fundoplication on symptoms and post-operative complications. Results: A total of 11 infants consist of four males and seven females. Mean birth weight was $2,305.5{\pm}558.6g$ (1,390-3,130 g). They had some underlying disease, which are not related with GERD such as congenital heart disease (54.5%), prematurity (45.5%), neurologic disease (18.2%), respiratory disease (18.2%), and other gastrointestinal disease. Mean body weight at surgery was $3,803.6{\pm}1,864.9g$ (1,938.7-5,668.5 g). Mean age at operation was $99.9{\pm}107.6days$ (17-276 days). Duration from operation to full enteral feeding was 10.9 days. Symptoms related GERD disappeared in all patients including one who got reoperation. One infant died of congenital heart disease unrelated to surgery. There were no complications related to fundoplication. Conclusion: Fundoplication is effective and safe treatment in the neonates and infants with severe GERD.

Eleven children with gastroesophageal reflux disease underwent fundoplication. Eight had neurological impairment, two had hiatal hernias and one had a history of esophageal repair for esophageal atresia. The most common and significant symptom was vomiting(81.8 %), followed by recurrent respiratory infections(72.7 %) and failure to thrive(72.7 %). The most common diagnostic tool was 24 hour esophageal pH study, which showed pH less than 4 for more than 10 % of the total recorded time in 6 of 9 patients. Nissen fundoplication was performed in 10 patients. Thal fundoplication was carried out in one patient with esophageal atresia. Stamm gastrostomy was added for nutritional and/or swallowing problem in all 8 patients with neurological impairment. The median follow up period was 13 months. There was one late death of unrelated cause and one recurrence. The quality of life after antireflux surgery was greatly improved. Antireflux surgery should be done if indicated, and a simultaneous gastrostomy considered in a patient with neurological impairment.

Esophageal hiatal hernia is common disorder in western sociey, and mainly affects mid-aged women, There are two types of hiatal gernia; common and more benign type is sliding [type I], and more severe type is paraesophageal [type II], and Skinner subdivided type II as true II, IIA, III, and paraesophageal group, As Skinner`s nomination, this case could be belong to IIA, which imply the state that natural hiatus is occupied with gastric antrum or duodenum instead of normal esophago-gastric junction, Main problem of paraesophageal hernia comes from its complication; intestinal obstruction, volvulus, strangulation, and incarceration, as well as pulmonary aspiration. So, as soon as confirm diagnosis, it should be corrected surgically to prevent above complications, and sometimes it could result in serious condition. We have experienced paraesophageal hiatal hernia in 3-day newborn infant and have repaired it successfully. We used transabdominal approach to repair and to prevent reflux Nissen`s fundoplication was performed. We would report that with reference study.
