Acute diaphragmatic rupture following open type IV paraesophageal hernia repair
نویسندگان
چکیده
Open primary transthoracic repair is a well established treatment for large paraesophageal hernias. The rate of major post-operative complications has been reported to be low, and no cases of acute diaphragmatic injury have previously been reported. Here we present a case of open primary transthoracic repair of a type IV paraesophageal hernia that was complicated by rupture of the left diaphragm in the immediate post-operative period, and was successfully repaired with Gore DualMesh® (W.L Gore and Assoc. Flagstaff, AZ).

متن کاملReview of Literatures on Laparoscopic Prosthetic Repair of Giant Hiatal Hernia than Pure Anatomical Repair of Crura
The esophagus passes through an opening in the diaphragm (i.e. esophageal hiatus) as it courses through the chest to the abdomen eventually ending at the stomach. This opening is usually adequate for passage of the esophagus and nothing else (Fig. 1). However, patients that have a hiatal hernia have an enlarged opening. There are four different types of hiatal hernias described. Giant hiatal he...
