Use of multiple channel pH monitoring for evaluation of ultra-distal reflux in patients after fundoplication for treatment of Barrett's esophagus.

abstract：:Short gastric vessels (SGV) division is a controversial topic in antireflux surgery. Some surgeons do not divide the SGV routinely to perform a fundoplication; however, excessive tension of the gastric fundus (GF) forces this procedure necessary in some cases. This study aims to evaluate in a cadaveric model of Nissen...
