Fundoplication After Lung Transplantation Prevents the Allograft Dysfunction Associated With Reflux
Open accessAbstract
Background Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in lung recipients is associated with decreased survival and attenuated allograft function. This study evaluates fundoplication in preventing GERD-related allograft dysfunction. Methods Prospectively collected data on patients who underwent transplantation between January 2001 and August 2009 were included. Lung transplant candidates underwent esophageal pH probe testing before transplantation and surveillance spirometry evaluation after transplantation. Bilateral lung transplant recipients who had pretransplant pH probe testing and posttransplant 1-year forced expiratory volume in the first second of expiration (FEV1) data were included for analysis. Results Of 297 patients who met study criteria, 222 (75%) had an abnormal pH probe study before or early after transplantation and 157 (53%) had a fundoplication performed within the first year after transplantation. Patients with total proximal acid contact times greater than 1.2% or total distal acid contact times greater than 7.0% demonstrated an absolute decrease of 9.4% (± 4.6) or 12.0% (± 5.4) in their respective mean 1-year FEV1 values. Patients with abnormal acid contact times who did not undergo fundoplication had considerably worse predicted peak and 1-year FEV1 results compared with recipients receiving fundoplication (peak percent predicted = 75% vs. 84%; p = 0.004 and 1-year percent predicted = 68% vs. 77%; p = 0.003, respectively). Conclusions Lung transplant recipients with abnormal esophageal pH studies attain a lower peak allograft function as well as a diminished 1-year FEV1 after transplantation. However a strategy of early fundoplication in these recipients appears to preserve lung allograft function.

Anti-reflux surgery before and early after transplant has been associated with a decrease in the development of early allograft dysfunction.
“Anti-reflux surgery pre-transplant and early post-transplant has been associated with a decrease in the development of early allograft dysfunction.(34, 35)”
From Consensus document for the selection of lung transplant candidates: An update from the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation. (2021) · cites this paper as [35]
The Results and Conclusions (page unavailable) associate fundoplication within the first year after transplantation with better peak and 1-year allograft function in recipients with abnormal reflux testing. The Methods distinguish reflux testing before transplantation from surgery after transplantation; this study does not support the claim about pre-transplant surgery or directly establish a decrease in the development of early allograft dysfunction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
