Brief Summary:
This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of laparoscopic antireflux surgery for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) comparing with that of non-surgical treatment.

To treat GERD, the most patients with GERD are managed with acid suppressive medication first, and followed by antireflux surgery when the medical therapy is not effective or when the patient prefer surgery to quit the medicine.
This study has a single cohort in which the patient has the past history of GERD and medical treatment with proton pump inhibitors, and has scheduled to have laparoscopic antireflux surgery for treatment of GERD.
