Abstract

Laparoscopic approaches are now commonly used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease. Some of the postoperative complications are specific to both open and laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication such as esophageal and gastric perforations, pneumothorax and esophago-gastric fistulas. It can be treated conservatively with anti-secretory agents or endoscopically with clip application. We reported a patient who developed fistula after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication and was reoperated.
