Abstract
The problem of shortened esophagus complicating gastroesophageal reflux and hiatal herniation was first tackled by Collis [1] by creating a vertical gastroplasty. The purpose of the gastroplasty was to create an acute angle of entry of the esophagus into the stomach. In doing so, he also achieved a lengthening of the esophagus. Pearson, in dealing with peptic stricture complicating gastroesophageal reflux associated with shortening, combined the procedures of a Collis gastroplasty with a Belsey type partial fundoplication [2]. The short- and long-term results of such a procedure however, revealed that the anti-reflux maneuver was not successfully accomplished by a partial fundoplication. As a result, Henderson modified the procedure by incorporating a total fundoplication of the Nissen type to the Collis gastroplasty [3].
