Why is gastroesophageal reflux disease easy to occur after stomach surgery

Gastroesophageal reflux disease is gastroesophageal reflux. Gastric surgery prone to gastroesophageal reflux may be caused by gastric volume reduction, vagus nerve trunk is cut, anti-reflux structure and function damage.

1, gastric volume reduction

after gastric surgery stomach volume will be reduced, easy to lead to gastric receptivity relaxation reduced, thus increasing the pressure at the pyloric site, resulting in gastroesophageal reflux.

2, vagus nerve trunk is cut

If the vagus nerve trunk is cut during gastric surgery, it can lead to gastrointestinal motility slowed down, gastric emptying capacity will also be reduced, resulting in excessive acid secretion, gastroesophageal reflux.

3, anti-reflux structure and function damage If

the anti-reflux structure and function are damaged during gastric surgery, it will also cause gastroesophageal reflux.
