No Cut Incisionless Surgery Esophyx

No Cut Incisionless Surgery Esophyx London, UK


GORD, or Gastro Oesophageal Reflux Disease, is a painful condition that affects the lives of millions. It means nagging heartburn, regurgitation, pain and the potential for problems whenever you eat or drink. It works its way through your life and can greatly affect how you feel on a day to day basis. There is a new development in gastric surgery that can change that. An incisionless procedure called EsophyX can greatly lessen the difficulty with GORD with no cutting and is soon to be available in the United Kingdom in London through accomplished surgeon, Dr. Elliot Goodman.


EsophyX is a transoral procedure meaning that it is performed through the oesaphagus with highly specialised instrumentation. While under general anesthesia, a 270 degree anti-reflux barrier is created by pulling down flaps of the fundus, the superior part of the stomach, which is kept in place with polypropylene fasteners until fusion of the stomach tissue takes place. In so doing, a functional replica of the original antireflux barrier is created with no cutting, a completely incisionless surgery. Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication emulates the benefits of laparoscopic procedures without cutting.


Benefits of EsophyX surgery include the following:



  • Reduces hiatal hernia

  • Creates a substantive nipple valve

  • Can be undone

  • Can be repeated

  • Can be revised / adjusted

  • No incisions


No cut surgery for GORD like EsophyX presents patients with a real solution that is significantly less invasive and completely incisionless. If you are interested in this procedure in London in the United Kingdom, call Dr. Elliot Goodman for more information
