About Hiatal Hernia Surgery

Hiatal hernia surgery is used to correct hiatal hernias. Hernias occur when an organ or tissue pushes through its usual space; they can be present at birth or develop as time passes. In hiatal hernias, the stomach moves up closer to the esophagus, into the part of the body called the hiatus. In order to correct the hiatal hernia, doctors can perform any one of several types of surgeries to treat this condition, ranging from Nissen fundoplication, to laparotomy, to other laparoscopic surgeries.
