Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the safety and effectiveness of stoma reversal combining bio-mesh placement in patients with high risk of stoma site incisional hernia (SSIH). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether bio-mesh placement is safe for patients with a high risk of SSIH. - Whether stoma reversal combining bio-mesh placement is a preventive strategy for patients with high risk of SSIH. - Whether stoma reversal combining bio-mesh placement will trigger other complications. Participants who are eligible and are enrolled in this study will receive stoma reversal combining bio-mesh placement surgery. After that, they will be followed up for one year to evaluate the occurrence of SSIH and other complications.
This observational, retrospective study aims to examine surgical outcomes in non-elective surgery for incisional hernia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - 30-day morbidity - short- and long-term surgical outcomes Data will be retrospectively collected from participating centers and compared. Researchers will compare surgical outcomes of the minimally invasive and laparotomic approaches to see if there are relevant differences in surgical outcomes.
The study has been designed to investigate the effect of 12 weeks of using virtual reality based exercises on pulmonary functions, exercise capacity, functional performance, and quality of life in children with surgically-repaired congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
Perioperative and postoperative pain control in pediatric patients is a frequently neglected issue. Regional anesthesia applications reduce adverse drug events by minimizing opioid consumption and provide effective and safe analgesia. In recent years, quadratus lumborum block has emerged as an alternative regional anesthesia technique and it has been shown to provide analgesia as effectively as caudal block in children, and in a limited number of studies it has been said that it is more effective than transversus abdominis plane block. There are few studies in the literature comparing ilioinguinal iliohypogastic nerve block and quadratus lumborum block in children.
The purpose of this study is to collect additional safety data and demonstrate the performance of Integra Gentrix® Surgical Matrix for reinforcement of ventral hernia repairs.
Ventral hernias form when there is a loss of integrity of the abdominal wall muscles. Abdominal hernias can expand and can cause severe pain as the abdominal wall weakens. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a range of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) doses to achieve primary fascial closure (PFC) without use of component separation technique (CST) in ventral hernia surgical repair. BOTOX is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of ventral hernias. In this dose escalation study, participants will be placed in 1 of 3 cohorts. Cohort 1 will be randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 2 BOTOX doses, after which time Cohort 2 will be randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 3 BOTOX doses. Participants in Cohort 3 will be randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 3 BOTOX doses. Adult participants undergoing open abdominal ventral hernia repair will be enrolled. Around 200 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 20 sites in the United States. Participants will receive a single intramuscular injection of BOTOX Dose A, BOTOX Dose B, BOTOX Dose C, or placebo. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). Participants will be followed for approximately 3 months after surgery and will receive a follow-up phone call 30 days (+/-) their last study visit. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
Surgical correction of the prolapse in the anterior compartment remains one of the major challenges in urogynecology. Paravaginal defect in level II of vaginal fixation results in the majority of cystoceles. Clinically, these defects are often combined and/or may be bilateral. Hence, careful assessment and individualized planning of the surgical procedure is essential to optimize cystocele repair outcome. Several surgical techniques and approaches have been used for cystocele repair. After the ban on transvaginal meshes, the interest in native tissue repair has risen. Paravaginal defect repair is an effective surgery for paravaginal defect reconstruction. There is a current trend to utilize transvaginal surgery instead of more invasive transabdominal surgery. A novel method of transvaginal paravaginal defect repair - TOCR (transobturator cystocele repair) was suggested. The principle objective of the present trial is to compare its efficacy and safety to preexisting method of native tissue cystocele repair.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the difference in quality of life at one year postoperatively for patients undergoing incisional hernia repair with mesh versus suture repair using modern techniques. The main question it aims to answer are: • Determine if primary suture repair is non-inferior to mesh repair for incisional hernias 2-6cm with respect to quality of life using the HerQLes summary score at one year postoperatively.
After an operation on the abdomen, some patients present with an incisional hernia(incisional hernia) which causes a permanent exteriorization of the vicera. This situation is at the origin of postural problems. Surgery which consists both of reducing pain and correcting the functional limitation and aesthetic damage helps restore normal anatomy and improve muscle tension of the wall, restore the musculoskeletal balance of the trunk and thus the cardio-respiratory and motor functions of patients. The resulting benefits on quality of life and reduction of chronic pain have been demonstrated by several studies. This study tends to better understand the functional and sexual prejudices linked to these parietal pathologies by passing questionnaires to the operated patients
Objective: Evaluation of our management of acute or chronic traumatic diaphragmatic hernia repair with sutures or mesh. Between January 2014 and January 2019, a retrospective study on 185 patients with acute and chronic traumatic diaphragmatic hernias was carried out at the general surgery department of Zagazig University. Results both during and after surgery were assessed.
