ARMS offers fewer complications than TIF for GERD treatment

A comparative analysis reveals ARMS as a preferable option for treating gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) due to shorter procedure times and reduced complications, specifically dysphagia and bleeding. While TIF shows higher rates of recurrence and reoperation, it offers better long-term efficacy in medication reduction and quality-of-life improvements, particularly in previously untreated patients. Individual treatment choices should be tailored based on patient-specific factors, underscoring the importance of personalized approaches in GERD management.
