Magen-Mobilitätsstörungen

English translation: gastric motility disorders

22:46 Aug 20, 2020
German to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical (general) / Summary of patient's condition (insurance claim)
German term or phrase: Magen-Mobilitätsstörungen
Dear All,

The doctor has written of "Magen-Mobilitätsstörungen nach Fundoplicatio" (these are handwritten notes). While I understand what is meant by the context, I can't find the equivalent English term, neither can my medical dictionary! Can anyone shed any light?

Many thanks, as always,
Alison.
