Brief Summary:
Patients scheduled for surgery for primary paraesophageal herniation are randomized to either conventional surgical hernia repair or with the addition of gastropexy.
Detailed Description:
Patients scheduled for surgery due to primary paraesophageal herniation are randomized into either the control group or the interventional group.
Control Group: Patients undergo a crural repair combined with a short and floppy Nissen fundoplication.
Interventional Group: In addition to the crural repair and Nissen fundoplication, patients receive a gastropexy. This involves the fixation of the posterior part of the wrap the right crus, the left portion of the wrap to the diaphragm, and the minor curvature of the stomach to the abdominal wall.
Follow-Up Assessments:
Imaging: Computed tomography (CT) scans are performed before surgery and at 1 and 3 years postoperatively to evaluate anatomical outcomes.
Patient-Reported Outcomes: The following questionnaires are completed before surgery, as well as at 3 months, 1 year, and 3 years after surgery:
SF-36: A global quality of life instrument. GSRS: The Gastrointestinal Symptoms Rating Scale. Reflux Frequency Questionnaire: A measure reflux disease-related symptoms. Dakkak's Dysphagia Score: An assessment of swallowing difficulties.
