U.S., Sept. 30 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07197619) titled 'Effect of Hernia Sac Excision on Crural Tension in Paraesophageal Hernia Repair' on Feb. 26.
Brief Summary: Paraesophageal hernia can cause significant clinical symptoms, including reflux, chest pain, nausea, regurgitation, and even life threatening conditions such as bowel obstruction, and gastric volvulus. Repair of a paraesophageal hernia is associated with significant recurrence rate, with primary repair often in excess of 50%. Hernia recurrence and revisional surgery significantly increase the likelihood of complications and decreased quality of life.
