OBJECTIVE: An important part of laparoscopic Nissen's fundoplication (LNF) is a proper wrap, which may only be possible with proper dissection of esophagus and hiatus. However, too much dissection of esophagus and hiatus to gain sufficient length of esophagus increases morbidity. The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of minimal esophagus dissection in LNF on recurrence and post-operative hiatal hernia.
