A Rare Case of Paraesophageal Hernia Repair Complicated by Pancreatic Injury

Esophageal hernias are anatomical defect that affects up to 50% of the population. While they may be asymptomatic, hernias may also result in reflux and dysphagia, among other symptoms. In such cases, hernia repair is warranted. The most common type of repair is laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication, w...

description Esophageal hernias are anatomical defect that affects up to 50% of the population. While they may be asymptomatic, hernias may also result in reflux and dysphagia, among other symptoms. In such cases, hernia repair is warranted. The most common type of repair is laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication, which is usually well-tolerated. Herein, we present a rare case of paraesophageal hernia repair complicated by pancreatic injury and pancreatic leak.
