If persistent, the failure may cause oesophagitis inflammation of the oesophagus. If a person develops heartburn, regurgitation, discomfort and oesophagitis, the condition is called gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD); sometimes symptoms are so serious as to warrant surgery. Gastro-oesophageal reflux is sometimes associated with hiatus hernia."}
