The EsophyX TIF Procedure
The EsophyX® TIF procedure enables the surgeon
to simply and safely reconstruct the antireflux barrier and gastroesophageal flap valve,
resulting in the effective elimination of GERD. The majority of patients have an excellent response
and no longer require taking daily medicines.
No incisions are required and the procedure is performed through the mouth (transoral) under endoscopic visualization.
Patients are able to return to normal activities within a few days following the procedure.
In
early clinical studies, 85% of patients remained off daily PPIs (proton pump inhibitors) and 75% experienced a total elimination of heartburn at one year after the EsophyX TIF procedure.
| Step
1: The specially designed EsophyX device enters the esophagus
through the mouth and is positioned at the junction of the stomach and
esophagus. |
 |
| Step 2: Hiatal hernia is reduced. |
 |
| Step
3: The EsophyX device pulls and fastens a tissue fold. |
 |
| Step
4: Step 3 is repeated multiple times to reconstruct the antireflux barrier with a robust full-thickness valve that restores the competency of the gastroesophageal junction, resulting in the effective elimination of GERD. |
