    Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs in a significant percentage of patients after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), necessitating effective treatment options.

  • 2

    The magnetic sphincter augmentation (MSA) device shows promise as an alternative to traditional fundoplication for treating post-LSG GERD.

  • 3

    A systematic review analyzed the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of the MSA procedure for GERD in patients who underwent LSG.

  • 4

    Fourteen studies involving 109 patients were included in the review, highlighting the growing interest in MSA for post-LSG GERD management.

  • 5

    The review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of MSA in reducing GERD symptoms and the need for proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in post-LSG patients.
