Although the surgical treatment of both GERD and obesity is very successful, these procedures have a significant impact on the physiology and function of the proximal GI tract. With the increasing prevalence of both GERD and obesity, more and more patients present at the motility outpatient clinic with symptoms related to surgical interventions for these medical problems. In this review, we describe the main complications following antireflux surgery: dysphagia, gas bloat syndrome, recurrent (persistent) GERD symptoms, and dyspeptic symptoms. The most common motility-related complications of obesity surgery are dumping syndrome and esophageal dysmotility.
