Summary
This study tests whether applying platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to the mesh used in hiatal hernia repair can lower the chance of the hernia returning. About 150 adults with large hiatal hernias will be randomly assigned to get either standard mesh repair or mesh plus PRP. The main goal is to see if PRP reduces hernia recurrence one year after surgery.
