Abstract:
Objective To evaluate high resolution manometry in the diagnosis of hiatal hernia.Methods Clinical data were reviewed on 20 patients suffering from gastroesophageal reflux who had laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication for preoperative tentative diagnosis of hiatal hernia.Preoperative diagnosis of hiatal hernia was made collectively by endoscopy,X-ray examination,24 hour esophageal pH monitoring and high resolution manometry before surgery.Results Preoperative diagnosis of hiatal hernia was made in 3 patients by X-ray examination,in 9 patients by high resolution manometry.11 patients were finally diagnosed with hiatat hernia intraoperatively.X ray was consistent with intraoperative diagnosis in 27% cases.Intraoperative and endoscopic diagnoses were 55%.High resolution manometry and intraoperative diagnoses were consistent in 82%.Lower esophageal sphincter length was (1.92 ± 0.38) cm in hiatal hernia group and (2.10 ± 0.92) cm in non-hiatal hernia group (t =0.60,P > 0.05),lower esophageal sphincter pressure (respiratory min) was (0.64 ±0.55) kPa in hiatal hernia group and (1.31 ± 1.07) kPa in nonhiatal hernia group(t =1.80,P > 0.05),and lower esophageal sphincter pressure (respiratory mean) was (1.43 ±0.92) kPa in hiatal hernia group and (2.57 ± 1.33) kPa in non-hiatal hernia group(t =2.26,P <0.05).The reflux parameters,including the percent total time pH < 4,and DeMeester score,were significantly greater in hiatal hernia group than in non-hiatal hernia group (all P < 0.05).Conclusions Hiatal hernia patients are with poor esophageal antireflux competency and severe reflux.High resolution manometry is more valuable in the diagnosis of hiatal hernia than endoscopy or X-ray examination.
