Abstract

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disorder that can cause a variety of typical and atypical symptoms. Although most patients can be rendered asymptomatic with medical treatment, some experience persistent breakthrough symptoms. A long history of GERD is associated with the risk for the development of Barrett's esophagus and ultimately esophageal carcinoma. Although often underutilized, minimally invasive antireflux surgery can help manage these patients. However, thorough evaluation and accurate diagnosis of GERD and its underlying pathophysiology are critical in ensuring successful surgical treatment. This review offers a stepwise approach to the diagnostic workup of GERD and how to appropriately tailor available surgical treatments to specific patient subgroups.
