After doing research, reading testimonials of patients who endured the procedure of Hiatal Hernia Repair Surgery in India, patients are keen to know more about us. This video gives complete description of how the surgery is implemented in India. A Hiatal Hernia occurs when the normal opening in the diaphragm is too large. If the problem is not repaired, the stomach or other abdominal contents may bulge into the chest, causing heartburn and serious damage to the esophagus. For an open hiatal hernia repair, a cut is made in the stomach area while the patient is under general anesthesia. The surgeon tightens the hiatus. The upper part of the stomach may be wrapped around the esophagus to reduce heartburn due to acid reflux. Sometimes the surgeon will place a temporary tube from the stomach through the abdominal wall to keep the stomach in place. In some patients, this operation can also be done with a laparoscope -- a method called "keyhole" or "telescopic" surgery. A laparoscope is a thin, hollow tube with a mini-camera on the end. Surgical tools can be sent through the laparoscope. Laparoscopic procedures use smaller cuts than open surgery, which results in less pain and scarring and shorter hospital stays. A new procedure called endoluminal fundoplication uses a special scope to place small clips on the inside of the esophagus. The procedure is done to help prevent reflux. Patients who have laparoscopic surgery typically spend 1 to 3 days in hospital. Those who have open surgery may spend 2 to 6 days in the hospital after the procedure.
