Abstract
Patients with esophageal dysmotility documented by manometry who are able to clear a food bolus at contrast esophagography, have functional results after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication similar to patients with normal motility. Preoperative esophagography predicts successful outcomes after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication for patients with manometric esophageal dysmotility.
