Filter by:Recently, percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) is also commonly performed for lumbar disc herniation. Following discectomy, the relief of leg pain is common; however, the relief of back pain is less predictable. The association of back pain and lumbar disc herniation is still unclear. PELD and Annuloplasty (PELDA) can relieve back pain associated with disc herniation as well as leg pain through decompression and thermal ablation of annular defects in selected patients. Another problem that rapidly increasing go along with the growing number of microdiscectomies is directly proportional to the number of patients who undergo re-operations due to recurrences. The surgical treatment can be helpful in prevention of re-operations is nucleoplasty. Endoscopic discectomy for lumbosacral herniation supplemented with nucleoplasty can reduce the recurrence and reoperation rates.
The aim of this study is to measure the mesh shrinkage and the visualization of the mesh with MRI scan at 1 month and 13 months after robot assisted preperitoneal hernia repair using the visible CICAT mesh (Dynamesh®).
In the treatment of ventral incisional hernias, a mesh repair in the retromuscular plane is considered as the gold standard. To allow for adequate medialization of the fascial borders and a complete closure of the defect in case of large incisional hernias, component separation techniques are increasingly being used. When compared to anterior component separation, posterior component separation by transversus abdominis release (TAR) seems to decrease postoperative wound problems. While laparoscopic techniques pose significant difficulties to perform TAR minimally invasively (mainly due to ergonomic and technical reasons), these limitations seem to be overcome by robotic platforms. Initial retrospective patient series report on significantly shorter postoperative hospital stay and fewer complications after robotic transversus abdominis release (rTAR), when compared to open transversus abdominis release (oTAR). High-quality prospective evidence on rTAR is currently lacking.
Background: Mesh fixation is a critical step in laparoscopic Transabdominal Preperitoneal (TAPP) hernia repair because fixation is a significant step to prevent the hazard of mesh migration, but is supposed to be associated with a higher risk of acute and chronic pain compared with non-fixation. Fixation is more expensive than non-fixation. Objective: To compare the efficiency of mesh fixation in laparoscopic TAPP surgical repair of inguinal hernia using sutured repair versus tacker use. Patients and Methods: This prospective randomized comparative study was carried out on 60 patients who presented with a unilateral inguinal hernia and were assigned to laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair. Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups (30 patients each); in group A, the mesh was fixed with a Titanium tacker, and in group B, the mesh was sutured and fixed with polypropylene 0.
A comparison of ventral hernia repair with Strattice and Fortiva mesh.Primary The study team aims to determine the hernia recurrence rates for RTI Surgical biologic mesh (Fortiva) compared to Strattice. Also the study team aims to determine the mesh related complications for RTI Surgical biologic mesh (Fortiva) compared to Strattice
Abdominal wall hernias are common, with a prevalence of 1.7% for all ages and 4% for those aged over 45 years. Inguinal hernias account for 75% of abdominal wall hernias, with a lifetime risk of 27% in men and 3% in women. Repair of inguinal hernia is one of the most common operations in general surgery
The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of a preoperative pulsed electromagnetic field and abdominal exercises on muscle strength post ventral hernioplasty.
In this clinical trial, equivalence is evaluated by exploratory comparison of changes in X-Ray lesions with test group (Cerazem Master V6) and control group (physical therapy) in patients with intervertebral disc herniation and degenerative stenosis.
Buprenorphine intravenous, sublingual, and transdermal patches have been researched for their antihyperalgesic effects, although peripherally mediated effects have not been examined in Egypt surprisingly
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of written and video based home exercise program in patients with symptomatic lumbar disc herniation on pain level, function and quality of life.
