Filter by:This study investigates on the effect of two different operative techniques to treat abdominal wall hernias. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the eTEP (Extended totally extraperitoneal repair) technique leads to a better outcome than the IPOM (Intraperitoneal onlay mesh) technique. The main questions it aims to answer are: - pain after the operation - rate of complications - rate of recurrence and reoperations - quality of life. Participants will: Either be operated using the eTEP or the IPOM technique. Be followed up either in person or via email / phone call at day 1, day 7, day 14, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1, 3 and 5 years after the surgery to asses the above-stated main and some more outcomes.
This study investigates on the effect of two different operative techniques to treat large abdominal wall defects. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the minimally-invasive, robotically-assisted ventral hernia repair (RVHR) leads to a better outcome than the open ventral hernia repair (OVHR). The main questions it aims to answer are: length of stay after the operation rate of complications rate of recurrence and reoperations quality of life. Participants will: Either be operated using the RVHR or OVHR will be followed up either in person or via email / phone call at day 7, day 30, 6 months, 1, 3 and 5 years after the surgery to asses the above-stated main and some more outcomes.
- Assess short term outcome of posterior component separation technique(PCS) including the regain of the physiological function of the abdominal wall. - Detect most common post operative complications related to AWR techniques in a 6 months duration after operation.
Umbilical hernia frequently accompanies cholelithiasis. It is possible to repair these hernias after completing cholecystectomy.
The goal of this retrospective study is to identify the incidence of hernia recurrence following the application of Histoacryl® Lapfix - Cannula for laparoscopic mesh fixation in patients undergoing hernia repair surgery. All adult patients who underwent laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair with Histoacryl® Lapfix - Cannula in the period June 2018 - March 2021 at Hospital San Juan de Dios will be analysed. The investigator team will access electronical medical records for the cohort of patients identified.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the functioning of the abdominal wall in patients who underwent hybrid (open- and laparoscopic) incisional hernia repair. The main objective is to assess the anatomical restoration and function of the linea alba one year after surgery by ultrasonography and mean peak torque during trunk flexion using a BioDex machine.
The goal of this pilot trial is to learn more about the role of Fetal Endotracheal Occlusion (FETO) as an intervention in fetuses with severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). The research team will investigate the feasibility and safety of the FETO procedure, as well as determine whether FETO can improve lung growth before birth, and survival after birth. This study will enroll 10 pregnant participants to undergo the FETO procedure at a gestational age of 27 weeks 0 days to 29 weeks 6 days. The participant will be monitored for a few weeks, and then the FETO removal procedure will be performed ideally at 34 weeks 0 days to 34 weeks 6 days, but may be indicated earlier as determined by the Maternal Fetal care team. The pregnant participant and their baby will continue to be monitored during delivery and up until the child reaches 2 years of age.
Low back pain is a common disease in all ages and it effects seriously quality of life. Medical treatment,interventional methods and surgery are the treatment options. Transforaminal epidural steroid injections (TFSI) is one of the interventional method for radiculopathy with low back pain. Michigan State University(MSU) classification is a MRI based disc herniation classification. It helps to classified disc herniation in types, places and sizes. The aim of this study to evaluate the pain and oswestry disability index in patients who have radiculopathy with low back pain, undergone TFSI according to MSU classification.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to teach patients to safely and effectively self-remove drains at home in adults (aged 18 and older) following a ventral hernia repair (VHR). Researchers will compare the group of subjects self-removing the drain at home to a control group of standard of care drain removal during a clinic visit by a provider to see if subjects are able to safely self-remove the drain at home.
Comparison beta sutured and suturless mesh fixation for ventral hernia regarding recurrence rates and complications rate
