Abstract
Introduction: This study aims to compare the laparoscopic Floppy Nissen fundoplication technique (LFNFT) and the laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication technique (LTFT) used in treating Type III and IV hiatal hernias (HHs).
Materials and Methods: This retrospective analysis was conducted after ethical approval. Patients who underwent Type III and IV hiatal hernia surgery were searched between January 2020 and May 2022. Patients who underwent LFNFT and LTFT for hiatal hernia repair were selected. Patients under 18 and patients who were followed up in our clinic after surgery were excluded from the study. The clinical and follow-up differences between the groups were evaluated statistically.
Results: Of the 38 patients who met the study criteria, 27 (71.1%) were female. The mean age of all patients was 41.39±14.03 years (21-77). 10 (26.3%) patients had Type 3 HH, and the remaining patients (73.7%) had Type 4 HH. LFNFT was performed on 27 (71.1%) patients, and LTFT on 11 (28.9%). Complications developed in 14 (36.8%) patients in the postoperative follow-up, and the most common difficulty was gas bloating, with a rate of 13.1%. In comparing the groups, LTFT was preferred in the male patients (p=0.005) and younger patients (p
