Nissen Fundoplication is a surgical procedure primarily used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and selected cases of hiatal hernia. During the procedure, the upper portion of the stomach, called the fundus, is wrapped completely around the lower esophagus to reinforce the lower esophageal sphincter and reduce the backward flow of stomach contents. The procedure is commonly performed using a laparoscopic approach.
Meliva Kardiolita Hospital, Kaunas provides specialised Nissen Fundoplication with a focus on precise anti-reflux surgery, minimally invasive techniques, anatomical restoration, and individualized postoperative management. Established in 1998, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Kaunas, Lithuania and operates 8 beds, with modern foregut surgery, endoscopy, imaging, laparoscopic, and postoperative care infrastructure.
Nissen Fundoplication can provide a surgical treatment option for appropriately selected patients with chronic GERD or associated hiatal hernia. Treatment planning considers the severity and duration of reflux symptoms, response to medical therapy, esophageal motility, presence and size of a hiatal hernia, endoscopic findings, and overall health. A detailed gastroenterological and surgical assessment helps determine whether complete fundoplication is appropriate and supports individualized perioperative and follow-up care.
