Guest guest Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Hi Eileen, A fundoplication is a surgical procedure done to tighten the top of the stomach to help control reflux. A nissan fundo, is the one I've heard most commonly. I believe this refers to the way the surgery is done. had a fundoplication, and a pyloroplasty, (a surgical procedure done to loosen the pylorus sphincter and aid the emptying of the stomach) when he got his g-tube at 8.5 months. Hope this helps Pat (g-ma to , RSS, 2 years old!!, 20# 5.2oz, 29 " , Prevacid, Zantac, Singulair, GT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
