Abstract:
Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a series of intraesophageal and/or extraesophageal symptoms caused by the reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus because of abnormal structure and function of gastroesophageal junction. Acid suppression therapy is the preferred treatment, but most patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease have poor symptom control or excessive dose for drug control, resulting in low quality of life. With the renewal of endoscopic equipment, endoscopic adjuvant therapy is attracting the attention of clinical physicians and patients owing to minimal trauma, rapid recovery, obvious symptom control, and few complications. This paper reviews endoscopic adjuvant therapy.
