Abstract
The article presents a review of literature dated 2011-2020 devoted to results of surgical treatment of small diaphragmatic hernias and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Small hernias are encountered with the frequency of 90%. The study discusses modern problems in application of different surgical methods for treatment of this pathology. Based on the review of domestic and foreign literature, we aimed to determine advantages of laparoscopic ant-reflux surgery versus conservative treatment and open surgery methods. Search for the materials was carried out in Scopus, Web of science, PubMed, e-library, Ulrich’s Periodicals Directory, Google Scholar and AGRIS databases. The keywords used were “small diaphragmatic hernias”, “operative treatment” and “gastroesophageal reflux disease”. The purpose of search for literature was to reveal main indications and selection criteria for laparoscopic ant-reflux surgery as well as to draw a comparison between results of cruroraphia and Nissen fundoplication by the frequency of relapse and complications. Additionally, we aimed to compare different operative techniques for fundoplication and to determine the most optimal one for improvement of the patients’ quality of life. Advantages of laparoscopic anti-reflux surgery in comparison with conservative treatment and open surgery methods have been revealed.
