Hiatal Hernia Repair is a surgical procedure to correct hernias in the upper abdomen, where part of the stomach pushes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity. This surgery is often performed to treat severe cases causing reflux or breathing issues.

The procedure involves repositioning the stomach and reinforcing the diaphragm with sutures or mesh. In some cases, fundoplication is performed to wrap the upper stomach around the esophagus, preventing reflux.

Postoperative care includes dietary adjustments, managing pain, and avoiding strenuous activities during recovery. Patients may also need medications to manage acid reflux until the healing process is complete.

Hiatal hernia repair provides effective relief from symptoms and prevents complications like strangulation or chronic reflux. This procedure improves overall health and comfort for affected individuals.
