Laparoscopic mesh-augmented hiatoplasty without fundoplication as a method to treat large hiatal hernias

Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with additional fundoplication is a commonly recommended standard surgical treatment for symptomatic large hiatal hernias with paraesophageal involvement (PEH). However, due to the risk of persistent side effects, this method remains controversial. Laparoscopic mesh...
