Optimizing outcomes in paraesophageal hernia repair: a novel critical view. [PDF]
The recurrence rate of paraesophageal hernia repair (PEHR) is high with reported rates of recurrence varying between 25 and 42%. We present a novel approach to PEHR that involves the visualization of a critical view to decrease recurrence rate. Our study

A Rare Case of Paraesophageal Hernia Repair Complicated by Pancreatic Injury. [PDF]
Esophageal hernias are anatomical defect that affects up to 50% of the population. While they may be asymptomatic, hernias may also result in reflux and dysphagia, among other symptoms. In such cases, hernia repair is warranted.
