RESUMO
Hiatal hernias are observed in approximately 15% to 20% of the population in Western society. Most patients are diagnosed with a sliding-type hiatal hernia, of which gastroesophageal reflux is the predominant driving symptom. Surgical repair of these types of hernias often involves a wrap procedure during the index operation as standard of care. For type 2, 3, and 4 hernias, also known as paraesophageal hernias (PEHs), the symptom complexes vary and often involve symptoms other than reflux, including dysphagia, anemia, shortness of breath, and chest pain. We sought to evaluate whether patients who underwent PEH repair without fundoplication reported different rates of postoperative symptoms compared with those who did.
