Topic Overview

Best of the Best presentation from PAPSA 2023 featuring three competitive studies in pediatric surgery. Winner presents a prospective randomized trial comparing laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication versus Helio procedure for pediatric GERD, addressing post-operative dysphagia concerns with alternative surgical technique.

Key Takeaways

  • PAPSA showcased 3 top pediatric surgery studies: posterior tracheopexy for EA/tracheomalacia, Nissen vs Thal fundoplication for GERD, and sympathectomy levels for hyperhidrosis
  • Thal fundoplication may offer alternative to Nissen for pediatric GERD with potentially reduced dysphagia and bloating complications
  • Thal procedure involves esophageal mobilization, crural approximation, and 270° anterior fundal wrap sutured to esophagus with hiatal fixation
  • Study compared laparoscopic Nissen vs Thal in 40 patients (Oct 2018-Feb 2020) for refractory GERD, hiatal hernia, and life-threatening symptoms
  • Recurrent GERD post-fundoplication affects up to 15% of pediatric patients, driving need for technique optimization
