[Repair of hiatus hernia in adults by double gastropexy (author's transl)].
Hiatus hernia was repaired in 108 adult patients by a technique combining posterior gastropexy, as described by Toupet, with anterior gastropexy on the lesser curvature. The purpose of the anterior gastropexy is to avoid intra-hiatal reascension of the anti-reflux montage, a complication which seldom results in recurrence of clinical symptoms but is reflected in radiological images of relapse with often troublesome psychosomatic effects.
