About this study

Groups of patients who underwent laparoscopic repair of large hiatal hernias by primary posterior crural repair and crural repair with ProGrip™ mesh techniques were examined for recurrence rate of hiatal hernias, quality of life according to the GERD-HRQL questionnaire. Clinical evaluation was performed at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 months after surgery.

Read the detailed description

The laparoscopic repair of large hiatal hernias is mostly performed by cruroraphy or cruroraphy with mesh reinforcement techniques.

Cruroraphy it is suturing of the right and left diaphragmatic crura using nonabsorbable stitches. Main disadvantage of such technique is the high hiatal hernia recurrence rate after surgery.

Cruroraphy with mesh reinforcement technique followed by relatively less hiatal hernia recurrence rate but associated with a large number of mesh-related complications.

Being tested
Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with ProGrip™ mesh, Laparoscopic primary posterior crural repair
Medical subject headings
Hernia, Hiatal, Gastroesophageal Reflux

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with ProGrip™ meshProcedure or surgery

    Also called Laparoscopic mesh hiatoplasty, Laparoscopic mesh hiatal closure

    Suturing of the right and left diaphragmatic crura using 3 to 4 interrupted nonabsorbable stitches with additional reinforcement of crura repair with ProGrip™ mesh

  • Laparoscopic primary posterior crural repairProcedure or surgery

    Also called Laparoscopic posterior crurorrhaphy, Laparoscopic posterior crural closure

    Posterior cruroraphy will be performed with 3 to 4 interrupted non-absorbable sutures

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Recurrence rate of hiatal hernia

    Recurrence of hiatal hernia will be assessed by barium contrast swallow study

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of life and satisfaction

    Quality of life and satisfaction will be assessed by Gastroesophageal reflux disease - health-related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) score. The scale has 11 items,each item is scored from 0 to 5. A higher score indicating a better quality of life.

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with ProGrip™ mesh and Laparoscopic primary posterior crural repair in people with Hiatal Hernia and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, run by Grubnik Volodymyr.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrence rate of hiatal hernia (time frame: 36 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Nov 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
