Lower end Esophagus, G-E Junction and Upper Stomach are mobilised laparoscopically. Hiatus defect is closed with the help of special sutures, and the fundus of the stomach is wrapped around the lower end of the esophagus — this is known as Fundoplication.
The surgery is quite safe and standardized. Short-term and long-term results are very good. Overall patient satisfaction index is very high.
Laparoscopic Hiatus Hernia repair and Fundoplication is also indicated for symptomatic Para-esophageal hernias. These patients also get very good results. Sometimes in Hiatus Hernia, when the defect is large, Hiatus repair may require use of a mash.
