Summary
This study looks at whether removing the hernia sac during surgery for a paraesophageal hernia (a type of hiatal hernia) reduces tension on the repair, which might lower the chance of the hernia coming back. About 42 adults aged 18-80 having hernia repair will be enrolled. Researchers will measure tension before and after sac removal during the operation.
