Since the first interventions of laparoscopic antireflux surgery in the early 1990 our interest has been the implementation of minimally invasive procedures in all Upper Gastrointestinal (Upper GI) pathology, benign and malignant. Surgeons continually strive to provide the best care possible for their patients. This focus on enhancing the quality of surgery brings them to employ the Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) approach. Doing so, they try to reduce postoperative pain, lower the risk of postoperative complications and increase quality of life.
