Oor JE, et al. - Analysis of 1-year outcome of laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair using sutures vs sutures reinforced with non-absorbable mesh was performed. Between 2013 and 2016, researchers randomized 72 patients with an objectified hiatal hernia for primary repair using non-absorbable sutures and sutures reinforced with non-absorbable mesh. Outcomes suggested equal hiatal hernia recurrence and symptomatic outcome using non-absorbable mesh to reinforce primary hiatal hernia repair compared to repair using sutures alone. No mesh-related complications during 1-year follow-up.
