TIF Reflux Treatment

TIF Reflux Treatment

Transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) is an advanced endoscopy procedure that provides relief from acid reflux (heartburn) symptoms associated with chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease. The TIF procedure is performed from inside the patient’s stomach without incisions. This procedure is less invasive, has fewer adverse effects than conventional ARS procedures, and does not limit future treatment options. The TIF procedure repairs the anti-reflux barrier by reducing a hiatal hernia (≤ 2 cm), and creating a valve 2 to 4 cm in length and greater than 270 degree circumferential wrap, thus restoring the dynamics of the angle of His.
