The goal of this multicenter observational study is to collect data prospectively of patients with pelvic organ prolapse undergoing ventral mesh rectopexy (as well as rectoceles, entero-/sigmoidoceles/ intussusception/ rectal prolapse or combined) by laparoscopy or robotic surgery and to evaluate the longterm functional outcomes. Secondly complications (mesh erosions, recurrence, reoperations) are evaluated. Following main questions will be analysed - other can follow in consultation with the collaborative 1. Is VMR the technique of choice for treatment of rectoceles? Functional results - recurrence - mesh related complications 2. Has a perineal descent an impact on the functional outcome of ventral mesh rectopexy perfored for external rectal prolaps, internal rectal prolaps, rectocele, enterocele, sigmoidcele or combined pelvic organ prolapse?
Ventral hernias in the midline of the abdominal wall are one of the most frequent diseases in general and visceral surgery worldwide. The optimal operative technique is still in discussion. The traditional techniques are open sublay or transabdominal intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair. In order to avoid the risks -large trauma to the abdominal wall with pain and infection, lesion of intraabdominal organs - a new hybrid technique - small skin incision, wide endoscopic dissection of the retrorectus space with implantation of a large mesh - was developed (EMILOS -Endoscopic Mini/Less Open Sublay).
In this randomized clinical trial, the investigators will compare the conventional open repair for hernia in the anterior abdominal wall with the robotic-assisted approach. 110 patients with midline abdominal wall defects will be randomized to either open or robotic-assisted surgery. The investigators will examine short and long-term complications through follow-up with clinical assessment as well as patient-reported outcome measures including pain, cosmetic appearance, and overall patient satisfaction. Furthermore, the investigators will study the difference in surgical stress response between the two methods measured from a variety of different biomarkers before and after the operation. A cost-effective analysis will be conducted for the robotic and open procedure.
Lower abdominal operations; especially inguinal hernia repairs are one of the most frequently performed operations in the daily practice of pediatric surgeries.Regional anesthesia techniques are frequently and effectively used methods in postoperative pain control. Main purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block and caudal block in pediatric unilateral inguinal hernia operations
When conducting the Shouldice procedure the 4-layer suture of the transversalis fascia is usually done with Prolene worldwide. At the Shouldice hospital the wire has originally been used for these augmentation. During the last decade several Shouldice Surgeons started to use the Prolene due to occasional delivery problems of the wire from Germany. The 1-year- recurrence rate at the Shouldice hospital is 1,15% (mainly wire-use). The published 1-year recurrence rate in Europe is 2%. As quality assessment, this project intends to evaluate these two options for suturing (wire vs Prolene) in the elective inguinal hernia patient in terms of 1-year recurrence rate. The population of focus will be those who had a primary or secondary inguinal hernia operation at Shouldice Hospital and the project is estimated to take 3 months.
This study aims to confirm the perioperative and early postoperative safety and clinical performance (efficacy) of the Dexter Robotic System, in patients undergoing primary transperitoneal unilateral or bilateral inguinal hernia repair.
The large hiatal hernia (LHH) now represents approximately 50% of laparoscopic antireflux surgical practice. In a non-comparative retrospective study of 399 patients operated for LHH with onlay patch of a bioprosthetic absorbable (Gore® Bio-A® HH0710) mesh with a mean follow-up of 44 months, 16% had a symptomatic recurrence with 7,9% requiring reoperation, one patient had oesophageal stenosis. No comparative effectiveness data exist to date. Hypothesis: the incidence of postoperative hiatus hernia would be reduced by the addition of biosynthetic absorbable mesh reinforcement to a standardized suture repair technique, as compared to laparoscopic repair without mesh, without increasing the risk of complications. The main objective is to compare the radiologic recurrence rate at 2 years between standardized herniorrhaphy with onlay biosynthetic absorbable mesh repair versus standardized herniorrhaphy with no mesh in symptomatic LHH.
This research is intended to be a pilot study to identify differences in outcomes for varied lifting and physical activity precautions following surgical repair of single-sided inguinal hernias. The researchers hypothesize that when given the autonomy to return to activity at the patient's discretion, convalescence will decrease in comparison to a control group given specific precautions to refrain from lifting and strenuous activity. Specific aims include differences in convalescence and surgical outcomes for each group, i.e. rates of complications, hernia recurrence, physical activity assessments pre and postop, and quality of life outcomes.
In this study, quadratus lumborum block (QLB), transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block, and local anesthetic infiltration will be performed preoperatively in patients who will undergo unilateral inguinal herniorrhaphy operation under general anesthesia. Quality of recovery (QoR-15) score, postoperative acute and chronic pain levels will be evaluated.
