ABSTRACT
Hiatal hernia is a common disease, which is always complicated with gastro-esophageal reflux. However, owing to restriction of diagnosis ability, the finding of hiatal hernia is still at low level in China. How to increase the finding or diagnosis of this disease and improve the life quality of patients, is an important task of radiologists and hernial surgeons. Surgery has been integrated into the therapy of hiatal hernia for a long time, but most surgeons still need to improve their recognition about its essence and the anti-reflux mechanism of lower esophagus. The purpose of surgery of hiatal hernia is not only to repair the defect, but to recover the anatomic structure and function of lower esophagus, as well as to rebuild anti-reflux barrier in stomach at the mean time. The key principle of surgery is to recover structure of GEJ, location of LES and the length of lower esophagus through fundoplication and firm fixation, which prevent it from dislocating to thoracic cavity. By adhering to the principle of this, we can combine the anatomy and function in repair of hiatal hernia, and recover and keep the anti-reflux function of LES utmost. MDT, specialized precision program and standardization will play more and more important roles in hiatal hernia therapy in the future. In this article, we made a review about the diagnosis and therapy history of hiatal hernia, as well as prospected the progress in the near future.
