🚨 Call for Collaborators – Multicenter Retrospective Study on Hiatal Mesh Shapes in Paraesophageal Hernia Repair 🚨

Dear colleagues,

We are excited to launch a multicenter retrospective study investigating how different hiatal mesh configurations influence outcomes in minimally invasive (laparoscopic and robotic) paraesophageal hernia repair.

🔎 Study focus
Posterior mesh placement 🆚 Keyhole / circumferential mesh configurations

We will evaluate their impact on hernia recurrence, considering:
⚙️ Surgical approach (laparoscopic vs. robotic)
🧵 Mesh material and fixation strategy
🪡 Hiatoplasty type and configuration
📊 Subgroup analyses across participating centers

🇪🇺 The project is conducted under the patronage of the European Foregut Society (EFS)

📆 Data collection
Opening January 2026 → Closing April 2026

👥 Authorship
Collaborative authorship is available for all contributing centers. Your participation will contribute to advancing the understanding of hiatal reinforcement and improving patient outcomes across Europe and beyond.

📩 For details or to participate, please contact:
