Esophagogastric fundoplasty partial or complete; laparotomy
AI EXPLANATION: Open esophagogastric fundoplication is an operation used to treat severe gastroesophageal reflux disease or hiatal hernias. Through an incision made in the abdomen, a surgeon wraps either a portion or all of the upper stomach around the lower end of the esophagus. This rebuilds and reinforces the muscular valve between the stomach and esophagus, preventing stomach acid and digestive fluids from traveling backward.
