Abstract
Background Postoperative complications such as failure or disruption of the crura repair and intrathoracic migration of the wrap are the most common anatomic reasons for the failure of Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication. The authors hypothesized that ultrastructural illness may be implicated in this recurrence. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of changes at esophageal hiatal area in patients with and without HH and to shed some light on the use of mesh in this surgery.
