Abstract Body:
Purpose: This presentation will be the summary of 3
separate research projects that we have completed examining the relationship
between PANDO and GERD.
We have shown that there is a relationship between these 2 conditions.We have
shown that patients with PANDO and GERD have an increased likelihood of DCR
failure.We have not been able to elucidate a mechanism to explain this
association.
