This case report describes a serious complication after laparoscopic Rosetti fundoplication. Two days postoperatively the proximal part of the stomach herniated into the thoracic cavity where a gastric perforation caused leakage. The patient was reoperated and a new fundoplication was constructed. Postoperatively the patient recovered. Possible mechanisms are discussed.
