“…Oral intake along with bowel movement and active mobility resumption was similar in standalone hiatal hernia surgery. However, although evidence exists regarding the safety of placing mesh in clean-contaminated wounds [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ], it is our opinion that the current evidence is not sufficient, and we advise the use of mesh only in carefully selected cases if cholecystectomy is performed. Meshes might induce serious complications, and we believe that it should only be used as a last resort in selected recurrent hiatal hernia patients or in patients with a diaphragmatic defect that resulted from a relaxing incision for a difficult hiatus, as in this study [ 12 ].…”

“…Although no mesh hiatoplasty or mesh reinforce was performed we are not against use of mesh in the hiatus, but we are against routine use of mesh. However, although evidence exists regarding safety in placing mesh in clean-contaminated cases [9][10][11][12][13][14], we believe that the current level of evidence is not high enough and we advise use of mesh only in carefully selected cases if cholecystectomy is performed. We must not forget the dreaded complications meshes can produce and we believe that it should only be used as a last resort, in cases where crural appropriation is not possible or in selected cases of recurrent hiatal hernia.…”
