Detection of hiatal hernias: comparison of high-resolution manometry and physician reported in an obese-predominant population
BackgroundThe diagnosis of a hiatal hernia (HH) can be made by barium oesophagram or upper endoscopy. Data regarding the ability of high-resolution manometry (HRM) with oesophageal pressure topography (OPT) to identify HH remains limited.
