Outcomes in antireflux surgery. Ranges based on retrospective reviews by Mattioli et al. [11], Chung and Georgeson [12], Steyaert et al. [13], and Subramaniam and Dickson [14] and randomized prospective study by Kubiak et al. [15]. Those categories with only one percentage value represent the only study that individually looked at a particular outcome category for either Nissen, Toupet, or Thal.

	Dysphagia	Postoperative complications	Recurrence rates	Repeat surgical intervention
Nissen	4% to 24%	4% to 22%	3% to 46%	2% to 14%
Toupet	2%	3% to 8%	1% to 25%	~2%–11%
Thal	2% to 22%	3%	6%–20%	10%–14%
