Filter by:Because it avoids direct nerve irritation or entrapment, mesh fixation with tissue adhesive glue seems an optimal option to reduce postoperative pain. Indeed, preliminary results published with different glues all showed promising results with reduced postoperative pain. This randomized controlled study aimed to compare mesh fixation using N-butyl 2-cyanoacrylate with classical suture fixation in Lichtenstein hernia repair in terms of chronic groin pain, postoperative complications, operative time and recurrence.
The investigation is aimed at specifically demonstrating the ingrowth of newly formed nervous elements within a 3D dynamic responsive implant for inguinal hernia repair.
Open prospective randomised clinical trial enrolling women who suffer from inguinal or femoral hernia, to evaluate if TEP approach is superior to TAPP concerning postoperative development, principally postoperative pain, with no increase of recurrent hernia at the one-year follow-up visit.
This study aims to explore the difference in outcomes relating to pain and quality of life after open, laparoscopic, and robotic-assisted inguinal hernia repair.
Study to evaluate the safety and performance of LiquiBand FIX8® Open Hernia Mesh Fixation Device.
CycloMesh is a polyester visceral implant functionalized by drug delivery systems directly on its surface, targeting a unique intervention, a slow anesthetic release and an in situ activity. Based on the fact that cyclodextrins are capable of forming inclusion complexes with amino-amide anaesthetic agents, ropivacaine and cyclodextrins were combined on a commercial visceral mesh.This enables CycloMesh to release ropivacaine for a sustained period in order to improve patient's comfort after inguinal hernia surgery. The underlying hypothesis of this work is that clinical gain is achieved by adding a drug delivery system to visceral mesh for the local and prolonged delivery of ropivacaine. This should results in an improvement in quality of life, a reduction in pain and a faster returning to work following treatment of inguinal hernia by lichtenstein technique.
This is a multi-center, randomized controlled trial of 284 subjects (142 in each group). Patients will be blinded to the fixation method used. The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of the LiquiBand FIX8® device to the tack-based control device (AbsorbaTack™) for laparoscopic groin hernia (inguinal or femoral) repair. The primary outcome measure is an improvement in pain score measured by VAS at 6 months. Secondary outcomes include the ability to affix hernia mesh, the ability to approximate the peritoneum, recurrence rate, and quality of life (Carolina Comfort Scale).
A prospective cohort study recruiting participants from the Shouldice Hospital. The study population consists of healthy patients electing to receive hernia surgery for a primary inguinal hernia on an inpatient basis. The goal of this study is to determine the incidence of hernia pain and its intensity as well as other related outcomes up to one year after primary unilateral inguinal hernia repair.
Open inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common surgical procedures. Despite the fact that different of anesthetic procedures are proposed as alternatives to spinal anesthesia, the combination of spinal anesthesia with open inguinal hernia repair is preferred from both surgeons and patients. One disadvantage of this combination is the high incidence of post-surgery urinary retention, especially in men above 50 years old. This complication is partially attribute to overstimulation of the a1 adrenergic receivers of the bladder and the prostate. Preoperative administration of elective a1 blockers could inhibit this effect without side effects, since this drugs don't have systemic effect.
There are lots of inguinal hernia risk factors determined in the literature. But the relationship between nutritional status and inguinal hernia were not examined yet. In this study the investigators evaluated the constipation scale and food consumption of the inguinal hernia patients. This Case-Control study was performed between March 2018- March 2019. The patients who admitted for operation with inguinal hernia were the case group (n:115) and the patients who were admitted to the same hospital without inguinal hernia were control group (n:88). The age, body mass index, alcohol and smoking habits, daily activity, frequency of food consumption and the Wexner constipation scoring were examined using questionnaire were noted.
