Filter by:This study is carried out to determine if laparoscopic inguinal TEP repair of the hernia using a mesh carried out with only 1 port (hole) results in the reduction of post- operative pain and use of painkillers, shorter hospital stay and lesser complications than that carried out using conventional 3 ports.
Sportsman's hernia is defined as a weakness or disruption of the posterior wall of the inguinal canal. Open hernia repair with or without mesh or laparoscopic techniques with mesh have been advocated in the treatment of sportsman's hernia and associated athletic pubalgia. The results of the operative treatment from single centers are reported to be good to excellent in between 70 - 90% of patients with the most promising results reported using an open minimal repair (OMR) technique. There are no randomized trials comparing open versus laparoscopic techniques regarding time for recovery and relief of pain. The aim of this randomized study is to compare the effectiveness of OMR technique in local or spinal anesthesia to endoscopic Total ExtraPeritoneal (TEP) technique in general anesthesia for the treatment of Sportsman´s hernia/athletic pubalgia. The primary endpoint is patient being free from intractable groin pain during sports activity or daily work four weeks after surgery.
The aim of this study is to evaluate risk factors and complications of ventral hernia repair. A retrospective study of journal files with patients undergoing ventral hernia repair, and an analyses of complications by use of the Clavien-Dindo classification of surgical complications.
The incidence of post-operative pain after open inguinal hernia repair is high and impair the quality of lives of the patients.The purpose of this study is to determine whether transverse abdominis plane block combined with intravenous patient controlled analgesia is superior to intravenous patient controlled analgesia in improving the quality of life and reducing the incidence of chronic post-surgical pain
The primary objective of this study is to compare with PFDI-20 questionnaire the functional outcome of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy and vaginal mesh surgery in the treatment of symptomatic exteriorised cystocele up to 4 years after surgery. The secondary objectives of this study are the following: 1. to compare the two techniques for anatomical results based on the clinical evaluation of patients with POP-Q. 2. to overall quality of life assessment and expectations of patients. 3. to compare the two techniques for the long-term safety. The evaluation will focus on the adverse effects of long-term sexual and genital symptoms, urinary and digestive functional symptoms, and chronic pelvic pain. 4. to compare the improvement of the functional outcome assessed by PFDI-20 questionnaire (matched-analysis before versus after).
This observational study will evaluate treatment of symptomatic cystocele grade II-III with Cousin Biomesh and Allium Medical Endofast Reliant. Data about 100 patients will be collected. Follow-up till 3 years after the procedure. Primary endpoint is absence of recurrence.
The aim of the present study is to investigate whether there are differences in indication for ventral hernia repair and surgical approach among hernia surgeons from different geographical regions of Denmark.
The Danish Hernia Database (DHD) registers 37 different perioperative parameters. The aim of present study is to use large-scale data from DHD to uncover risk factors for long-term (30 days postoperative and later) readmission, reoperation, death and reoperation for recurrence after incisional hernia repair with use of a synthetic mesh.
The aim of this study is to evaluate on which indication patients are offered operative treatment for their ventral hernia, and to investigate the natural course of ventral hernia in the population of patients not offered operation.
The investigators propose a randomized, single blinded controlled trial to compare the use of synthetic versus biologic mesh in hiatal hernia repair, two currently accepted standard of care surgical modalities. The investigators hypothesize that use of synthetic mesh will have lower recurrence at these time points compared to use of biologic mesh.
