Given the various etiologies and pathogeneses of different types of MHs, the mechanisms of the treatments are different, and the choices of treatment methods and the prognoses of MHs are also different. Clinicians should pay more attention to optimize the integral quality of treatments in addition to the closure rate of MHs by making a comprehensive and accurate diagnosis, a thorough inquiry of the disease course, and a precise selection of appropriate surgical strategies, as well as enhancing the treatment safety and postoperative follow-ups.
