Impact of Biosynthetic Mesh on Paraesophageal Hernia Repair

The Impact of Biosynthetic Mesh on Paraesophageal Hernia Repair in Robotic Anti-Reflux Surgery: A Multi-Institutional Randomized Trial

Sponsor

Weill Medical College of Cornell University

Enrollment

200 participants

Start Date

Jun 10, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Hiatal Hernia

Summary

The aim of this study is to find out if using a certain kind of mesh can reduce the chances of hiatal hernias coming back after anti-reflux surgery. Participants undergoing antireflux surgery will be assigned to one of two groups, a group that has surgery with mesh, or a group that has surgery without mesh.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years
