Abstract:
Results of operative treatment of patients with esophageal hernias of the diaphragm can be substantially improved in cases of differential approach to choice of the plasty method. Choice of the method of plasty depends on the hernia type, topographic-anatomical structure of the esophageal opening of the diaphragm, concomitant diseases and age of the patient. Preference should be given to methods of non-complete fundoplication performed from the transabdominal access.

01:25Hiatal Hernia
A hiatal hernia is the abnormal protrusion of the stomach or other abdominal organs through the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm into the thoracic cavity.Normally, the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) lies below the diaphragm and is supported by the phrenoesophageal membrane, the diaphragmatic crura, and connective tissues. Weakening of these structures—due to aging, congenital defects like a short esophagus, or increased intra-abdominal pressure from coughing, obesity, pregnancy, or heavy...
