Update on the Durability and Performance of Collis Gastroplasty For Chronic GERD and Hiatal Hernia Repair At 4-Year Post-Intervention

Patient Expectations After Collis Gastroplasty

“…Additionally, patients lost to long-term follow-up may have undergone reoperation at outside facilities, preventing data capture from our network’s record. Our findings parallel more recent studies suggesting comparable efficacy profiles with patients undergoing antireflux surgery with and without a CG . It is important to emphasize that diagnostic studies cannot reliably diagnose SE preoperatively.…”

“…Our findings parallel more recent studies suggesting comparable efficacy profiles with patients undergoing antireflux surgery with and without a CG. 5,6 It is important to emphasize that diagnostic studies cannot reliably diagnose SE preoperatively. This should compel surgeons who operate on HH to learn how to perform CG to achieve similar outcomes.…”

“…Pain scores were compared using zero-inflated Poisson regression, which best models data with an excess of zeros. 5 Zero-inflated Poisson regression provides the odds ratio for reporting no pain (in a zero-inflation model) and the mean ratio of pain scores for patients who report pain (in a count model). Confounders were included if they were both clinically relevant and changed the coefficient of the independent variable (geriatric status) by more than 10%.…”
