on the basis of the anatomophysiological assumption that the abdominal oesophagus is kept in its seat by the meso-oesophagus and that the complex functional role of the gastro-oesophageal junction is conditioned essentially by the inferior oesophageal sphincter under the influence of intra-abdominal and endogastric pressure variables , posterior gastro-oesophagophreno-plasty ( p.g.p.p . ) is proposed to offset the destruction or severe insufficiency of the meso-oesophagus and hence for the treatment of hiatal hernia and of regurgitation .
