    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and General Surgery

    Context:

    • Hiatal hernia is a common condition often associated with other morbidities.
    • A significant percentage of hospitalized patients with hiatal hernia present with comorbidities.
    • Sliding hiatal hernia is the most prevalent type observed in clinical settings.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the clinical and therapeutic aspects of hiatal hernia.
    • To determine surgical indications and associated interventions for hiatal hernia.
    • To evaluate the post-operative outcomes of surgical interventions for hiatal hernia.

    Summary:

    • A study of 141 hospitalized hiatal hernia patients revealed sliding hernias as the most frequent type.
    • Over 60% of patients had associated morbidities, necessitating comprehensive evaluation and management.
    • Surgical intervention was indicated in 57% of cases, often combining hiatus repair with anti-reflux procedures.

    Impact:

    • Surgical correction of hiatal hernia, particularly when combined with anti-reflux measures, demonstrates favorable outcomes.
    • Good to very good results were achieved in 78% of surgical interventions.
    • The findings underscore the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing complex hiatal hernia cases.
