Surgical Clinics of North America, 2000
The laparoscopic repair of paraesophageal hernia has proven to be safe and effective, with relatively low morbidity and mortality rates. The laparoscopic approach is feasible in patients with paraesophageal hernia because these patients are usually past middle age and commonly have multiple other medical problems.

Laparoscopic Paraesophageal Hernia Repair
Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2013The last 2 decades have witnessed a revolution in the treatment of patients with paraesophageal hernia (PEH). Nowadays, the laparoscopic repair with fundoplication is considered as the primary treatment modality in most academic centers for symptomatic patients. Three findings have clearly emerged: (1) this procedure is technically demanding; (2) it is

Laparoscopic Paraesophageal Hernia Repair
Advances in Surgery, 2007Paraesophageal hernias are difficult surgical problems that often need repair. Meticulous work-up and surgical technique are required for optimal results. A laparoscopic approach is associated with reduced morbidity and, if combined with the use of biologic mesh, provides relief of symptoms and a durable repair.
