Clinical Trial Summary

A prospective randomised multi - center trial on the repair of large hiatal hernias with sutures versus pledgeted sutures versus absorbable mesh The primary objective of the present trial is to compare the hiatal hernia recurrence rate between three different methods of cruroplasty in large hiatal hernias: hiatal closure with sutures versus pledgeted sutures versus absorbable mesh (Phasix™ST mesh). The duration of the study is not limited and depends on the number of cases planned. After enrollment in the study, patients will be followed - up with standardized questionnaires and gastroscopy at 6 months, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years after surgery.
