Abstract Obesity and hiatal hernia go hand in hand as siblings. Morbidly obese patients commonly have gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) and associated hiatal hernias (HH). The gold standard for all symptomatic reflux patients is still surgical correction of the paraesophageal hernia, hiatal closure and fundoplication. Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is an effective surgical treatment for morbid obesity and is known to effectively control symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux (GERD). It appears to be safe and feasible and becoming more common. Moreover, LRYGB plus Hiatus hernia repair (HHR) appears to be a good alternative for HH patients suffering from morbid obesity as well than antireflux surgery alone because of the additional benefit of significant weight loss and improvement of obesity related co-morbidity. One patient suffering from giant hiatal hernia and morbid obesity where a combined LRYGB and HHR without mesh was performed is presented in this paper.

Postoperative Dysphagia

Abstract INTRODUCTION Laparoscopic Fundoplication (LF) as a treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has positive clinical outcomes. However, postoperative dysphagia (PD) may appear as a side effect. Our objective is to analyze PD in patients operated on for LF in our center. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective and descriptive study of patients operated on for GERD from September 1997 to February 2019. RESULTS 248 patients (60.5% men), with a mean age of 49.7 (21-82), were operated. 66.1% of the patients presented associated comorbidities, highlighting obesity (19.8%). 75% manifested typical symptoms, 19% presenting with Barrett’s esophagus. Sliding hiatal, paraesophageal, mixed and complex hernia were diagnosed in 151 (60.9%), 23 (9.3%), 12 (4.8%), and 4 (1.6%) patients, respectively. The LF Nissen was the most frequent technique (91.5%), using a caliper in 46% of the cases. PD was the most frequent symptom, present in 57 (23%) patients. It was resolved with dilation in 9 patients, requiring 6 patients surgical reintervention. In those PD cases, a caliper was used in 28 (49.1%) patients, without finding significant differences between them (P = .586). Nor were there significant differences between PD and obesity (P = .510), type of hiatal hernia (P = .326), or surgical technique (P = .428). After a median follow-up of 50.5 months, quality of life was classified as Visick I-II, III, and IV in 76.6%, 6.9% and 1.2% of the cases, respectively. CONCLUSION No association between PD and the use of calipers, surgical technique or type of hiatal hernia was found in our series.

Sandifer syndrome, named after neurologist Paul Sandifer, was first reported by Marcel Kinsbourne in 1962, who noted an upper gastrointestinal disorder that occurs in children and adolescents with neurological manifestations. Sandifer syndrome is a neurobehavioral disorder that causes a series of paroxysmal dystonic movements in association with gastroesophageal reflux and, in some cases, with hiatal hernia. It is characterized by esophagitis, iron deficiency anemia, and is often mistaken for a seizure of epileptic origin.
