Has anyone here had the EndoCinch procedure? If so, how are you doing? Are your results better than that of the Nissen Fundo? Or any other procedure?

tracks83, i believe the endocinch is no longer available ... has a doctor told you differently? if i remember correctly, they found the stitches didn't hold. currently, the endoscopic treatment that seems to be popular is called the esophyx. from the boards, it seems to get mixed results.

I've got a 270 degree wrap and feeling great! I'm at week six of my healing.
I wanted the esophyX but my surgeon said it was too high risk for me with my HH size.
