Gastric Hernia Surgery

Gastric hernia problem – problems are fully detected by endoscopic imaging. With the contribution of the anesthesiologist to the patient, the appropriate anesthetic dose adjustment is made based on his age – gender – height and other criteria. Surgery is performed using laparoscopic (closed surgery) method. Surgical cuts of minimal size in the abdominal area are removed and advanced to the stomach accompanied by an Endoscopic Camera. The part of the stomach that has progressed to the chest cavity is pulled back to its former position. In cases where the opening in the diaphragm is also narrowed, synthetic patches are made to this area to prevent the formation of a hernia of the stomach again.

Gastric hernia surgery is terminated within at least 1 to no more than 2 hours. 1 or 2 days stay in the hospital for the necessary follow-up and control after surgery. The patient is then discharged and sent home. A liquid, puréed and solid diet is given and the dietitian is kept under control. The patient returns to normal standards, including work life, no later than 7 days. It is necessary to observe various restrictions, such as sexual abstinence, until the healing phase is complete. There is less pain than in many surgical methods. In addition, since the closed surgery method is applied, there are almost no possible surgical scars. Before surgery, if the patient uses drugs with blood-thinning properties, he should leave at least 7 days in advance. In addition, if you have smoking – alcohol habits, you should quit in this process. Surgical cuts range from 0.5 mm to 1 cm.
