Project description:BackgroundGiant hiatal hernias are more common in older patients and can significantly reduce their quality of life. However, open surgery for patients of advanced age is thought to be associated with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the safety of laparoscopic giant hiatal hernia repair for elderly patients as compared to younger patients.MethodsFrom January 2015 to January 2020, 152 consecutive patients underwent laparoscopic mesh repair of giant hiatal hernia. Two cases of missing follow up were excluded. Patients were divided into an elderly group (N=62, age ≥75) and a younger group (N=88, age <75). Interrupted non-absorbable suture was applied for crus closure and as an additional reinforcement, the mesh was fixed with absorbable tacks or medical glue. Procedure-related complications, score-based variation tendency of symptoms, gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI), mortality, recurrence rate, hemoglobin, and the use of PPI were investigated.ResultsAll patients underwent the procedure uneventfully. Dor fundoplication was used in 39 patients (62.9%) in the elderly group and 44 (50.0%) in the younger group and no case was converted to open. While the elderly group had a significantly higher percentage of ASA Class level 3 and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases as compared to the younger group, the two groups had similar operative times, intraoperative blood loss, and percentage of intrathoracic stomach. Elderly group patients tended to have higher perioperative complications including pneumonia (3.2%) and atelectasis (3.2%) without statistical significance, as well as transfer to the intensive care unit compared, to younger patients (9.7% vs. 3.2%; P=0.144). The mean post-operative hospital stay was also significantly shorter in the younger group (2.8 days) compared with the elderly group (3.5 days; P=0.001). There was no mortality, recurrence, mesh-related complications such as visceral erosion, adhesion, or severe dysphagia during follow up in the two groups, and both groups demonstrated significant improvement in GIQLI scores and hemoglobin. The percentage of patients who needed PPI was also reduced in both groups.ConclusionsLaparoscopic mesh repair of giant hiatal hernia for elderly patients is safe and effective when performed at experienced centers.
