Long-term outcomes of transoral incisionless fundoplication for gastro-esophageal reflux disease: systematic-review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background and study aims? Few reports exist about long-term outcomes of transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) for treating refractory gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods? A literature search of four major scientific databases was performed up to May 2020 for studies reporting on more than 3-year outcomes of TIF. Data on atient satisfaction, proton pump inhibitor (PPI) daily consumption, PPI use reduction, GERD health-related quality-of-life (GERD-HRQL) score, and normalization of heartburn and regurgitation scores were pooled and summarized with forest plots. Publication bias and heterogeneity were explored. Results? Overall, eight studies (418 patients, 232 men; 55.5?%) with a mean follow-up of 5.3 years (range: 3-10 years) were included. The pooled proportion of patient-reported satisfaction before and after TIF was 12.3?% (95?% CI:12.3-35.1?%, I ² ?=?87.4?%) and 70.6?% (95?% CI:51.2-84.6, I ² ?=?80?%), respectively, corresponding to an odds ratio of 21.4 (95?% CI:3.27-140.5). Pooled rates of patients completely off PPIs and on occasional PPIs were 53.8?% (95?%CI: 42.0?%-65.1?%) and 75.8?% (95?%CI: 67.6-82.6), respectively. The pooled estimated mean GERD-HRQL scores off PPI before and after TIF werey 26.1 (95?%CI: 21.5-30.7; range: 20.0-35.5) and 5.9, respectively (95?%CI:0.35.1-11.4; range: 5.3-9.8; P ?Conclusion? Our study shows that TIF appears to offer a long-term safe therapeutic option for selected patients with GERD who refuse life-long medical therapy or surgery, are intolerant to PPIs, or are at increased surgical risk.

Project description:IntroductionLaparoscopic fundoplication is the gold standard treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) refractory to medical management. Although many studies have compared Nissen fundoplication (NF) to Toupet fundoplication (TF), it is unclear which operation provides the best long-term reflux control. The objective of this study was to evaluate long-term quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes after NF versus TF.MethodsClinical data from our single academic institutional foregut database were used to identify patients who underwent NF or TF (June 2010 to May 2016). Postoperative QoL was assessed through telephone at 1, 3, or 5 years postsurgery, using GERD-health related quality of life (GERD-HRQL), Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI), and Eckardt Dysphagia scores. Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use and satisfaction with surgery were also obtained. Trends in outcomes over time were analyzed by logistic regression or Cochran-Armitage trend test.ResultsOur cohort included 155 TF and 161 NF patients. TF patients reported baseline dysphagia at higher rates (42.6% versus 19.9%; P < .001) and had worse preoperative esophageal dysmotility than NF patients. There were no significant differences in GERD-HRQL or GCSI scores between TF and NF patients at any time point postoperatively. Long-term satisfaction was equivalent between TF and NF patients 5 years postoperatively (70.0% versus 77.4%; P = .67). NF patients had higher Eckardt dysphagia scores 1 year after surgery compared to TF patients, but this difference was not present at 3 or 5 years postoperatively. Over time, PPI use increased and there was a trend toward increased GERD-HRQL scores in the TF group.ConclusionsBoth TF and NF provide excellent long-term satisfaction for patients with GERD. NF and TF patients reported similar postoperative QoL scores. Our finding of increasing PPI use and a trend toward worsening GERD scores following TF warrants additional investigation regarding the long-term durability of TF.
