Abstract

Background: Mesh implementation to repair the hiatal space is already justified. Nevertheless, the use of this procedure is debated in regard of complications that may occur. Mesh erosion and migration are considered the most serious complications of mesh repairs.

Case presentation: It has not yet been well described in the literature. We describe a case of mesh erosion of stomach, many years later after a prosthetic repair of a diaphragmatic rupture associated to hiatal hernia, is presented here because of its rarity.

Conclusion: Few explanations have been put forward to explain this incident. Could it be due to inflammatory processes, or to the composition of the Meshes? As yet, there is no definitive explanation.
