ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The use of mesh in the repair of large hiatal hernias is still controversial. One of the most feared adverse events related to the use of mesh is erosion into the esophageal and gastric walls. AIMS: To record the endoscopic treatment of mesh that has migrated into the gastric lumen after surgical treatment of hiatal hernia. METHODS: The technical option was to wait for the progressive migration of the mesh into the gastric lumen, monitoring with upper digestive endoscopy, with removal by traction at the best time, with the aid of foreign body forceps. RESULTS: The mesh was completely removed, and the evolution was satisfactory, without complications. CONCLUSIONs: In patients with mesh migration into the stomach who are oligosymptomatic and do not show signs of complications, endoscopic surveillance and subsequent removal of the foreign body can be successfully performed when the mesh is not adhered to the gastric wall, avoiding surgical procedures with high morbidity and mortality. |
