Are You Experiencing Any of These GERD Indicators?
Severe acid reflux and weakened lower esophageal sphincters lead to progressive discomfort. Select all indicators that apply to you:
Untreated chronic GERD can lead to severe complications including esophageal strictures, bleeding ulcers, and Barrett’s Esophagus.
Why You Shouldn't Ignore Chronic Acid Reflux
GERD occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) fails to close properly, allowing corrosive gastric acid to repeatedly wash back into the esophagus, eroding mucosal tissues.
Esophagitis & Strictures
Chronic inflammation causes tissue scarring and narrowing of the esophagus, making swallowing increasingly painful and difficult.
Barrett’s Esophagus
Prolonged acid exposure alters cellular lining in the lower esophagus, carrying a recognized risk of malignant transformation.
Aspiration & Respiratory Issues
Acid micro-aspirations into airways can trigger chronic bronchitis, asthma flare-ups, and recurrent aspiration pneumonia.
Your Surgical Journey at Arihant Hospital
Pre-Op Evaluation
Detailed endoscopy, manometry, and hiatal hernia assessment with our senior GI surgeons.
Laparoscopic Repair
Precision wrapping of the gastric fundus around the lower esophagus to reconstruct the valve.
Rapid Recovery
Minimal post-op discomfort, early ambulation, and quick discharge within 48 hours.
Dietary Progression
Structured post-surgical diet advancement and long-term acid-free follow-up support.
Advanced Anti-Reflux Protocols
Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication Procedure
Performed through tiny keyhole incisions, the upper part of the stomach (fundus) is wrapped 360 degrees around the lower esophagus to recreate a tight valve mechanism, permanently preventing stomach acid from rising.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Workup
Our diagnostic suite includes high-definition upper GI endoscopy, esophageal manometry, and 24-hour pH monitoring to evaluate reflux severity and confirm exact anatomical candidacy for surgery.
Structured Post-Operative Recovery
Patients receive clear dietary guidance starting with liquids and gradually advancing to regular food, backed by dedicated surgical follow-ups to ensure a smooth, permanent return to normal eating.
The Gold Standard Care: Laparoscopic Precision & Hernia Repair
Medications only mask symptoms without fixing the structural valve failure. Nissen Fundoplication permanently restores antireflux barrier function while correcting any accompanying hiatal hernia.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Nissen Fundoplication and how does it work?
Nissen Fundoplication is an operation that wraps the upper part of the stomach around the lower esophagus to strengthen the anti-reflux barrier. A surgeon will assess whether it is appropriate for your symptoms and test results.
Who may be considered for Nissen Fundoplication?
It may be considered for some people with persistent gastroesophageal reflux or a hiatal hernia after clinical assessment. Suitability depends on symptoms, overall health, and investigations such as endoscopy or esophageal testing.
What tests may be needed before anti-reflux surgery?
Evaluation may include upper GI endoscopy, esophageal manometry, and ambulatory pH monitoring. Your clinician will recommend tests based on your symptoms and medical history.
Is Nissen Fundoplication performed laparoscopically?
It is commonly performed using a minimally invasive laparoscopic approach, but the recommended technique depends on the individual case and the surgeon's assessment.
How long is the hospital stay after surgery?
The length of stay varies with recovery, health, and the details of the procedure. Your care team will advise when it is safe to go home and provide follow-up instructions.
What should I expect when eating after surgery?
Eating is usually advanced gradually, often starting with liquids or soft foods before progressing as advised. Follow your surgeon's diet plan and contact the care team if swallowing difficulty or other concerns persist.
Will I still need acid reflux medication after surgery?
Medication needs vary. Do not stop or change prescribed treatment without discussing it with your clinician, who can review your symptoms and recovery.
Are Nissen Fundoplication consultations and surgery covered under ECHS or CGHS?
Coverage and eligibility depend on the applicable scheme, approvals, and individual circumstances. Contact the hospital's cashless desk to confirm current requirements before planning treatment.
