Laparoscopic 180° anterior fundoplication has been shown to achieve similar reflux control to Nissen fundoplication, with fewer side‐effects, up to 5 years. However, there is a paucity of long‐term follow‐up data on this technique and antireflux surgery in general. This study reports 12‐year outcomes of a double‐blind RCT comparing laparoscopic Nissen versus 180° laparoscopic anterior fundoplication for gastro‐oesophageal reflux disease (GORD).
