Acute intrathoracic incarceration of the stomach after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication.
Surg Laparosc Endosc Percutan Tech. 2000 Apr; 10(2):99-102.SL

Abstract

A rare case of paraesophageal hernia with complete intrathoracic incarceration of the stomach after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is described. An 85-year-old woman who had undergone laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease presented 14 months later with nausea and vomiting. Esophagogastroendoscopy showed obstruction of the esophagogastric junction and gastric mucosal necrosis. Emergency laparotomy showed the stomach to be entirely strangulated into the thorax, with areas of necrosis. Gastrotomy was followed by resection of the necrotic anterior wall of the stomach, closure of the hiatus, and suturing of the stomach to the diaphragm. Appropriate closure of crura and anchoring suture between the stomach and diaphragm are helpful to prevent recurrent hernia after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication.
