Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF) is an endoscopic procedure used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) without making external incisions. During TIF, the lower esophageal sphincter is tightened using a special device inserted through the mouth, preventing acid reflux.

This incisionless approach is less invasive compared to traditional fundoplication surgery and offers quicker recovery times, reduced pain, and no visible scars. TIF is typically recommended for patients with mild to moderate GERD who have not responded to lifestyle changes or medication.

Postoperative care involves monitoring for complications such as difficulty swallowing or infection. Patients are usually able to resume normal activities within a few days, with dietary changes made to prevent irritation to the esophagus.

Transoral incisionless fundoplication offers an effective solution for GERD, providing relief from reflux symptoms and improving quality of life without the need for traditional surgery.
