Filter by:This trial will compare laparoscopic and robotic-assisted abdominal hernia repairs, using the Versius® system. We will initially aim to recruit 60 patients (20 patients in the laparoscopic arm and 40 in the robotic arm) in order to assess the ergonomic impact of each modality on the operating surgeon. This aims to provide in vivo information on whether robotic surgery provides any advantages to the operating surgeon. This trial will also be used to assess the feasibility of recruitment to a future larger study, and any data collected will be used as pilot data.
The best approach for lateral incisional hernia is not known. Posterior component separation (reverse TAR) offers the possibility of using the retromuscular space for medial extension of the challenging preperitoneal plane. The main objective of the study was to describe the surgical techniques used and their outcomes in the open lateral approach for the treatment of L3-L4 European Hernia Society (EHS) classification Incisional hernias, comparing the results between reverse TAR and pure lateral retromuscular preperitoneal, and analyzing the short- and long- term complications, including patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs). The study report followed the recommendations for reporting outcomes in abdominal wall hernias, and the new international classification of abdominal wall planes (ICAP). A multicenter retrospective observational study was conducted using a prospectively maintained database from three university hospitals in Spain specialized in complex abdominal wall reconstruction. All patients undergoing open abdominal wall repair through the previous lateral incision for L3-L4 IHs between February 2012 and January 2020 were identified. All patients were operated on by the senior surgeons responsible for the complex abdominal wall units of each participating center. Prior to conducting the study, the approval of the local ethics committee was obtained (ID:39/2019). Written informed consent was also obtained. The diagnosis of IH was based on clinical examination and imaging from a computed tomography (CT). The investigator only included patients with L3-L4 IHs. Patients with primary lateral hernias, such as Spiegel, Grynfelt and Petit hernias were excluded. We also excluded all patients in which the lateral IH was a parastomal hernia. Demographic data, patient comorbidities, different classifications of hernia complexity, Carolinas Equation for Determining Associated Risks (CeDAR) and intraoperative and postoperative data were collected All patients followed a similar preoperative optimization program, which included endocrinologic and nutritional evaluations, respiratory physiotherapy, and abstinence from smoking at least 1 month before surgery. Weight loss was extremely recommended but without any mandatory prerequisite.
This is a retrospective European multicenter study evaluating surgical treatment of patients with a complex ventral incisional hernia using robotic-assisted laparoscopic transversus abdominis release (rTAR) or open transversus abdominis release (oTAR).
Restoring the physiologic tension of the abdominal wall is a key concept in abdominal wall reconstruction. Yet little is known quantitatively about the normal tension of the abdominal wall. To better understand the ideal tension for abdominal wall reconstruction, the physiologic tension of the abdominal wall needs to be measured. This study aims to measure the tension of the abdominal wall during laparotomy closure.
The use of synthetic mesh to repair infected defects of the abdominal wall remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the short-term outcomes of using PVDF mesh to treat infected abdominal wall defects in the elective setting.
Observational, Retrospective, Multi-center Clinical Study on the Safety of SAFIL® MESH in Patients Undergoing Reinforcement of Soft Tissues After Abdominal Wall Surgery or Other Fascial Defects
This study is to investigate the rate of internal hernia after laparoscopic Rox-en-Y gastric bypass when the defects are closed using cyano-acrylate glue.
The general objective of the study is to confirm the medium/long-term safety and clinical performance of the CELLIS membrane used in abdominal wall reconstruction including, but not limited to, ventral hernia repair and stoma closure, and to identify emerging risks in comparison to the clinical data related to other types of fixation material. The present study will be a prospective multicentric non-randomized and noncontrolled trial involving 112 patients followed for 24 months. The study will be conducted in France in 3 investigational centres.
The objective of this study is to establish the extent to which mesh improves quality of life and surgical outcomes following hernia repair.
This trial was designed as a prospective randomized, controlled, intervention, with two parallel groups, and a primary endpoint of recurrence during 12 months' follow-up after initial treatment, with the randomization, was performed by an online software a 1:1 allocation.
