Answers:
Hiatus hernia is a protrusion of the stomach through the diaphragmatic hiatus!. Most hernias are asymptomatic, but an increased incidence of acid reflux may lead to symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)!. Diagnosis is by barium swallow!. Treatment is directed at symptoms of GERD if present!.
A new procedure called endoluminal fundoplication uses a special scope (endoscope) to place small clips on the inside of the esophagus!. The procedure is done to help prevent reflux!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
