6.3.3 Ligation Above andBelow theDentate Line
1. Enter the gastroscope into the gastric cavity and duodenum, observe whether
there is any disease in the upper digestive tract, and determine the position of the
esophageal dentate line.
2. A ligature is installed at the front end of the gastroscope to enter the esophagus.
First, use an endoscopic suction device to aspirate the mucosal and partial mus-
cular layers located 1 cm below the dentate line on the gastric lesser curvature at
the cardia. The base of the aspirated tissue will retract to form a spherical mass.
Next, deploy the ligating band. Avoid ligating the gastric greater curvature to

prevent damage to the angle of His. Finally, apply ligation at the site 1 cm above
the dentate line in the esophagus. During the ligation procedure, observe the
morphology of the ligated tissue, monitor the tightness of ligation, and ensure
that the gastroscope can pass through the cardia with mild resistance—this is the
optimal ligation endpoint [10].

6.3.4 Postoperative Treatment

1. After the operation, fasting with water for 24h, giving treatments such as acid
suppression, stomach protection, and uid infusion
2. Oral PPI and gastric mucosal protective drugs for 2weeks

6.3.5 Postoperative Follow-Up

Re-examination of gastroscopy, 24-h PH monitoring of esophagus, esophageal
dynamics examination, Gastro-Esophageal Reux Disease-Health Related Quality
of Life (GERD-HRQL), and Gastro-Esophageal Reux Disease-Questionnaires
(GERD-Q) at 3months, 6months, and 12months after surgery.
6.3.6 Efcacy Evaluation
Through GERD-HRQL, GERD-Q scoring standards, gastroscopy, grading accord-
ing to the Los Angeles grading system [11] (LA grading), 24-h PH monitoring of
the esophagus and esophageal dynamics examination, and comparison of changes
before and after surgery.

6.3.8 Advantages ofPECC
1. Minimally invasive: Endoscopic cardia ligation treatment without changing the
anatomical structure.
2. Fast recovery: Minimal trauma, and liquid food can be taken 24h after surgery.
This technique can be considered in the day ward [12].
3. Safety: No serious complications such as esophageal perforation or death.
4. Simple operation: Endoscopic ligation treatment technology is mature and easy
to master.
5. Economical: Surgical instruments used in ligation are easy to obtain and rela-
tively inexpensive.
6. Mild Side effects: A small number of patients experience choking after eating,
post-sternal pain, and abdominal distension. However, all symptoms were
relieved after 1–2weeks of symptomatic treatment.
7. Effective: After PECC treatment, the symptoms were signicantly relieved, and
the dose was reduced or the drug was stopped.
6.4 Clinical Application ofPECC
Peroral endoscopic cardial constriction (PECC) has been used in clinical treatment
of GERD since it was rst reported in 2013. This method is minimally invasive,
safe, quick to recover, and has few side effects.
A study [13] used DeMeester, GERD-HRQL, and GERD-Q scores to analyze
the clinical treatment effect of PECC on GERD.The DeMeester, GERD-HRQL,
and GERD-Q scores of patients before treatment were compared with the three
indicators from 3 and 6months after surgery. The difference is statistically signi-
cant, indicating that PECC treatment is effective (Table6.2). The results of the 24-h
pH monitoring of the esophagus showed that, compared with 3months and 6months
after the operation, the PH <4-time percentage, the number of reuxes, and the
duration of long reux were signicantly different in these three indicators
(Table6.2). The patient’s acid reux and heartburn symptoms were signicantly
relieved. After rechecking the gastroscope, the healing of esophagitis improved sig-
nicantly (Table6.3). In this study, no serious treatment-related complications such
as esophageal stenosis and dysphagia occurred. Some patients only had slight pain
under the xiphoid process and behind the sternum after the operation, which was
naturally relieved after 2–3days of acid suppression treatment. Considering that the
ligation xation method causes limited cardiac contraction, which may affect the
efcacy, this study excluded patients with hiatal hernias with a diameter greater
than 3cm.

In another study [10], a total of 52 patients with refractory GERD received PECC
treatment, the gastrointestinal symptoms improved after surgery, the incidence of
extra-esophageal symptoms [14] also decreased (Table6.4), and the treatment effect
was signicantly higher than the previous Hai-Qing Hu [15] and other reports. This
may be due to the effect of ligating the xed mucosa and part of the muscle layer to
form folds below and above the dentate line. Long ligation of the esophagus will
increase the pressure near the lower esophageal sphincter and the cardia.
A retrospective study [16] compared the clinical efcacy of ARMS and PECC in
the treatment of GERD.Although the success rate of these two procedures is 100%,
the operation time of PECC is signicantly shorter than that of ARMS.During fol-
low- up 2months after the operation, the effective rates of symptom improvement in
the PECC group and the ARMS group were 89% and 60%, respectively. The
GERD-Q score of the PECC group was signicantly lower than that of the ARMS
group (Table6.5). After 1year of follow-up, there was no signicant difference
between the two groups in the symptom improvement rate, GERD-Q score,
DeMeester score, and the percentage of time that PH <4. The conclusion is that the
6 Peroral Endoscopic Cardial Constriction (PECC)
82
long-term clinical efcacy of ARMS and PECC in the treatment of GERD is equiva-
lent, but the short-term efcacy of PECC has advantages.
PECC is a safe, effective, minimally invasive, and economical treatment for
GERD.It can reduce reux and other symptoms related to reux. It can be a new
method for the treatment of GERD, but it still requires multicenter randomized
controlled studies and long-term follow-up to conrm the efcacy of PECC.

Dynamic Examination
7.1.1 Symptoms andSigns Scale
Abnormal esophageal motility can cause associated esophageal dyskinesia, and the
main manifestations are acid regurgitation, heartburn, dysphagia, and chest pain,
which can also appear outside digestive tract symptom. Some scales can evaluate
gastroesophageal reux, and the dynamic state of the esophagus can be reected
from the side. Common evaluation scales include gastroesophageal reux disease
questionnaire (GerdQ, Table 7.1) and the reux disease questionnaire (RDQ,
Table7.2). For the GerdQ, a total score greater than 8 is considered positive, with
a sensitivity of 65% and a specicity of 71% [1]. For the RDQ, a total score of
more than 12 is considered positive [2]. The use of both scales will improve diag-
nostic specicity, and one study showed higher sensitivity for single GerdQ than
RDQ [3]. Throat reux disease laryngopharyngeal reux disease (LPRD) is one of
the multisystem manifestations of gastroesophageal reux. The gastric contents
reux to the upper esophageal sphincter, causing local mucosal damage, a disease
characterized by a series of symptoms such as pharyngeal foreign body sensation,
cough, hoarseness, esophageal dyskinesia. Removal function decline is part of the
cause of LPDR.Although some current views suggest that throat reux is present
alone in gastroesophageal reux, but a study suggests this may be due to low laryn-
goscopy [4]. The total score of reux symptom index (RSI, Table7.3) was greater
than 13, and the sensitivity was 82.6% and specicity was 84.6%. For the Reux

Signs Score (RFS, Table 7.4), a total score greater than 7 suggests sore throat
reux. One correlation study of 3932 cases suggested that RSI and RFS could be
included in the LPRD study as objective, consistent low-cost, and practical param-
eters [6]. Anxiety is an independent risk factor for symptoms of gastroesophageal
reux disease and laryngopharyngeal reux [7, 8]. The total score of Self-rating
