ARS & PEH – Failure Happens
• Anti-reflux Surgery Failure
- 5-40%
- Redo vs. back on PPIs
• PEH Failure
- 25-40%
- ? anatomic vs. clinical failure

Failed ARS & PEH – Management Challenging
4
• What is failure?
• How to work-up?
• Decision about redo
• Intraoperative- Technically demanding
- What to do (e.g., take down wrap, mesh, full wrap)

Failed ARS & PEH – Keys to Success
6
• Know patterns of failure
• Diagnostic work-up
• Patient selection
• Intraoperative management

ARS & PEH – Patterns of Failure
9
• It all starts here
• Pattern of failure determines indication for surgery
• Correlate symptoms & diagnostics to pattern of failure
• Strong correlation predicts success

Failed ARS & PEH – Work-up
11
• Read your own contrast GI studies
• See endoscopy directly (do endoscopy yourself or go to GI unit)
• No one better that you to recognize and correlate failure patterns

Redo ARS & PEH – Patient Selection
12
Not everyone with failure should have a redo
65 yo male, 6 years of good response, now with recurrent HB and hiatal hernia with wrap undone
Presentation Redo?
Easy Yes
32 yo female, never completely better after wrap, “loose wrap”, pH slightly increased
No

Redo ARS & PEH – Operative Management
14
• Start on left
• Enter mediastinum from left & posterior
• Open gastrohepatic well away from hiatus – “cheater plane” over caudate
• Always take down prior wrap unless its your own and immediate hiatal herniation
• Consider PEG if difficult dissection / large hernia

Redo ARS & PEH – Summary
15
• Failure happens
• Become an expert diagnostician
• Correlate symptoms & diagnositics to pattern of failure – beware no correlation
• Technical execution in OR critical
• Get help
• Good outcomes are possible
