Abstract
The Authors report a case of strangulated paraesophageal hiatal hernia occurred in a elderly woman and treated with laparoscopic approach. After review of the literature regard on this uncommon pathology that present about 5% of the hiatal hernias, they emphasize that the laparoscopic approach is appropriated even in emergency and comprises complete reduction of the stomach in abdomen, control of suitable position of the distal esophagus and cardias and making of effective hiatus-plasty.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
