The cost of surgery for hiatal hernia ranges from about 20,000 to 50,000 yuan, depending on the actual condition of the patient, the treatment method, and the grade of the hospital.
Take the size of the hiatal hernia or whether it is combined with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as an example to illustrate:
1. If the patient has no symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux before surgery and the hiatus is small during surgery, the hiatus can be closed directly with sutures to reduce the size of the hiatus without the need for patching, and the surgery is relatively simple and the cost is low, at around 20,000 yuan.
2. If the esophageal hiatus is large and combined with gastroesophageal reflux, a patch needs to be implanted during the operation, and fundoplication is also needed, so the operation cost is relatively high, around 30,000 to 50,000 yuan.
Esophageal hiatal hernia needs individualized treatment, it is recommended that public hospitals for treatment, the charges are well documented.
