A novel technique to facilitate laparoscopic repair of large paraesophageal hernias
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundLaparoscopic repair of large paraesophageal hernias (LPEH) is technically challenging, and requires advanced laparoscopic skills. We have developed a novel technique for facilitating laparoscopic repair of LPEHs safely and easily, using a Nelaton catheter.Patients and MethodsSeven patients with LPEHs were operated on through a laparoscopic approach. During surgery, the left lobe of the liver and right diaphragmatic crus were elevated using a suspended thread covered by a Nelaton catheter.ResultsAll patients were operated on laparoscopically using this technique. No patient required conversion to open method. The median operating time was 205 minutes and the range was from 155 to 295 minutes. No intraoperative or early complications occurred in any patient. Late complications occurred in 2 patients due to a small sliding hernia: a slipped fundoplication in 1 patient, and a gastric ulcer in the other.ConclusionsIn conclusion, laparoscopic repair of LPEH is a challenging procedure that requires wide experience in laparoscopic gastroesophageal surgery. Further refinement for this operation may be necessary.
