A robotic nissen fundoplication is a surgery to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD. During the procedure, a surgeon creates a sphincter at the bottom of the oesophagus to prevent acid reflux. Most people notice a significant decrease in acid reflux symptoms after the surgery.
Observe your symptoms and talk to your doctor for a possibility of robotic fundoplication if the symptoms have been persistent long-term.
Patients who actively look for weight loss solutions and have a BMI more than 30 may be eligible for robotic weight loss surgery. Consider standard laparoscopy or da Vinci robotic surgery, both of which require only minimal incisions. When considering transformative procedures, consult Dr. Shrikant Kurhade for personalised advice on the most effective way to reach your weight loss goals.
When undergoing robotic nissen fundoplication surgery, things are relatively easier for both the surgeon and the patient.
- robotic systems make it easier for doctors to reach your organs as they operate.
- Minimally Invasive surgery uses a high definition 3D vision system with flexible instruments that enable your surgeon to operate with enhanced precision.
Robotic fundoplication allows for a faster recovery and less visible scarring than an open procedure.
With fundoplication surgery, chronic acid reflux that causes regurgitation, heartburn, chest pain, and difficulties swallowing can be effectively treated.
Fundoplication surgery can help with swallowing difficulties brought on by GERD-related esophageal constriction or scarring.
Fundoplication surgery is a treatment option for severe esophageal inflammation or irritation brought on by extended exposure to stomach acid in order to stop additional damage.
A part of the stomach that pushes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity can be repaired using this surgery.
Disorders such as asthma or recurrent pneumonia can result from chronic reflux. These breathing issues can be resolved by surgery to treat the underlying GERD.
When compared to open surgeries, robotic fundoplication surgery has shorter recovery times and better surgical outcomes, making it a preferred option for patients looking for accurate and less invasive solutions to GERD-related disorders.
New advancements in minimally invasive surgeries have led to the use of robotic systems for Nissen fundoplications. A robotic assisted surgery uses small incisions—about 1-2 cm—to allow specially designed instruments and a camera to enter the abdomen. This advanced technology allows surgeons to control the instruments with a wide range of motion while being guided with magnified, high-definition imagery of the problem area.
Patients are anxious to get back to normal life and activities. In most cases, patients resume normal day-to-day routines within the first week.
As the oesophagus heals, patients are on a liquid diet for the first week, helping to control breathing issues and excess gas after the procedure. There may be tenderness or pain in the incision sites and difficulty swallowing immediately after surgery.
Precision and Accuracy
Robotic Fundoplication surgery provides increased precision in maneuvering surgical instruments, assuring correct placement during
the process.
Minimally Invasive
When compared to typical open surgeries, patients receive less scarring, less pain, and a faster recovery with fewer incisions (1-2 cm).
Shorter Hospital Stay
Patients who receive robotic fundoplication often have a shorter hospital stay, which contributes to a quicker return to normal activities and lower healthcare expenses.
Improved Dexterity
Robotic arms have increased dexterity in replicating the surgeon's hand movements, allowing precise movements in complicated anatomical locations during robotic fundoplication surgery.
Advanced Visualisation
The robotic system gives surgeons with high-definition, three-dimensional visualisation, providing for a detailed picture of the surgical site and improving decision-making during the process.
Decreased Complications
Since robotic fundoplication surgery is minimally invasive, there are frequently fewer complications, making it a safer and more effective treatment for disorders such gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
If lifestyle changes and medication do not alleviate symptoms, or if troublesome symptoms continue despite high doses of medication, further damage can result, and surgery may be the best next option. Surgical intervention is generally suggested for patients with:
- Inadequate symptom control with medication or side effects
- An inability to tolerate, or unwillingness to take lifelong medications
- Severe complications of GERD
The primary risk of Nissen fundoplication surgery is that symptom relief does not always last. Some patients need another surgery after two to three years. Like all surgeries, Nissen fundoplication may carry a risk of infection at the site of surgery if proper post-operative care is not taken.

Decreased Complications
Since robotic fundoplication surgery is minimally invasive, there are frequently fewer complications, making it a safer and more effective treatment for disorders such gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Symptoms and complications associated with GERD
Some people are born with a naturally weak sphincter (LES). For others, however, fatty and spicy foods, certain types of medication, tight clothing, smoking, drinking alcohol, vigorous exercise or changes in body position may cause the LES to relax, causing reflux. A hiatal hernia may be present in many patients who suffer from GERD, but may not cause symptoms of heartburn.
The most common symptoms of GERD include:
- Heartburn and acid reflux most often occuring 30 to 60 minutes after eating that worsens at night
- Chest pain
- Nausea
- Difficulty swallowing or the feeling of a lump in the throat
- Hoarseness, laryngitis and/or sore throat
- Persistent dry cough
- Wheezing
- Asthma or asthma-like symptoms
What is the most common complication of robotic fundoplication?
If lifestyle changes and medication do not alleviate symptoms, or if troublesome symptoms continue despite high doses of medication, further damage can result, and surgery may be the best next option. Surgical intervention is generally suggested for patients with:
