Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is performed in neonates and children for significant gastroesophageal reflux. An aberrant left hepatic artery encountered during laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication makes dissection around the esophageal hiatus more difficult if the artery is not transected. Although some suggest division of the aberrant left hepatic artery, this is associated with risk of significant hepatic injury from ischemia. We routinely preserve the aberrant left hepatic artery and sought to determine (1) the incidence of aberrant left hepatic artery and (2) the results following preservation of the aberrant left hepatic artery.
