Abstract
The magnetic sphincter augmentation (MSA) procedure is a safe and effective long-term treatment for gastro-esophageal reflux disease. Although the reported removal rate of the Linx device is low, it could be underestimated and remains a source of controversy. This is a retrospective study on a prospectively collected database of patients who underwent MSA implantation from March 2007 to September 2021 in a single tertiary-care referral center. The trend of MSA explant over the years and the possible predictive factors for MSA removal were investigated. The reasons for MSA removal, the technique of explant, and the clinical outcomes of the revisional operation were reviewed. Out
