Abstract
Persistent dysphagia, defined as dysphagia that is still present 3 months after an anti-reflux procedure, can have multiple etiologies and requires a calculated, algorithmic approach. In this chapter, the evaluation of a patient with persistent dysphagia after surgical fundoplication and magnetic sphincter augmentation will be outlined. The expected results of esophagography, endoscopy and manometry for the most common etiologies of dysphagia following each of these procedures will be reviewed.
