Abstract:
An exceptional case of incarcerated para-hiatal hernia with gastric necrosis, developing 7 years a Toupet procedure, is reported. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of this complication after a surgical anti-reflux procedure without diaphragmatic counter incision. The mechanism, diagnostic difficulties and treatment are discussed.
