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.
Choosing Hannibal International Clinic for Nissen Fundoplication gives patients access to experienced foregut surgeons, advanced gastrointestinal imaging and endoscopy, laparoscopic surgical systems, specialized anesthesia services, and structured postoperative care. Established in 2007, the accredited hospital in Tunis, Tunisia has 120 beds and provides specialized treatment for GERD and related upper gastrointestinal conditions.
Nissen Fundoplication is generally performed under general anaesthesia through several small abdominal incisions when a laparoscopic approach is used. The surgeon creates a complete wrap of the stomach fundus around the lower esophagus after addressing any associated hiatal hernia. Following surgery, patients may initially require dietary modifications while swallowing and gastrointestinal function recover. Potential postoperative effects can include difficulty swallowing, bloating, gas-related discomfort, nausea, or recurrence of reflux in some patients.
Chirurgie Pro provides specialised Nissen Fundoplication with a focus on precise anti-reflux surgery, minimally invasive techniques, anatomical restoration, and individualized postoperative management. Established in 2010, the accredited hospital is located in La Marsa, Tunisia and operates 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.
