          Abstract

          Morbid obesity is associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which, in most cases, completely resolves after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Patients with persistent or recurrent symptoms have limited surgical options. This study sought to evaluate the application of the Stretta procedure for patients with refractory GERD.
