laparoscopic total fundoplication
LTF was performed using a standard five-trocar technique in all cases and carried out by two expert surgeons who had previously performed more than 50 laparoscopic fundoplications. A floppy 360° total fundoplication of 2-2,5 cm was constructed after full esophageal mobilization and posterior crural repair with nonabsorbable sutures.
