Filter by:Clinical, controlled, randomized, prospective study. Ventral hernias between 2(1.5)cm and 7 cm, laparoscopic surgery with intraperitoneal onlay mesh. Three randomization groups of 25 patients giving a total of 75 patients. Mesh is fixated with either Protack, Securestrap or Glubran II. Primary outcome: postoperative pain on the 2nd postoperative day. Secondary outcomes: pain, quality of life, recurrence and adhesions at 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months postoperative.
The purpose of this study is to compare the long-term complaints after ventral hernia repair after insertion of different types of mesh compared with primary suture. Also recurrence of hernia will be discussed.
This is a prospective randomized study to compare surgical methods for the repair of large abdominal hernia.
This is a prospective chart review/data collection study of natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) for ventral hernia repair, that will include questionnaires administered throughout the study. Subjects enrolled will be those intending to have a transvaginal NOTES ventral hernia repair. Data will be collected and reviewed through 12 months post-op.
The aim of the present study was to analyse factors associated with prolonged length of hospital stay, readmission and death in a nationwide group of patients undergoing elective ventral hernia repair in search for areas of interest to improve outcome after ventral hernia surgery
The proposed study will compare the benefits, harms, and comparative effectiveness of intraperitoneal barrier-coated and non-barrier coated ventral hernia repair (VHR) mesh in reducing adhesions, adhesion-related complications, and adhesiolysis sequelae in actual patient subpopulations and clinical circumstances. A subset of the data will be analyzed to compare the benefits, harms, and comparative effectiveness of the laparoscopic and open approaches to adhesiolysis. A comprehensive array of health-related risk factors and patient-centered outcomes will be assessed in the investigators diverse patient population for proper multivariate data analysis. Specific Aim I: To evaluate and compare the adhesion characteristics of intraperitoneal barrier-coated versus non-barrier-coated mesh during abdominal re-exploration after prior ventral hernia repair. Specific Aim II: To evaluate and compare the adhesion-related complications and adhesiolysis-related complications of intraperitoneal barrier-coated versus non-barrier-coated mesh during abdominal re-exploration after prior ventral hernia repair. Specific Aim III: To determine the comparative effectiveness of intraperitoneal barrier-coated versus non-barrier-coated ventral hernia repair mesh in reducing adhesions, adhesion-related complications, and adhesiolysis sequelae in actual patient subpopulations and clinical circumstances. Specific Aim IV: To evaluate and compare the adhesiolysis-related complications of the laparoscopic and open approaches to adhesiolysis during abdominal re-exploration after prior ventral hernia repair. Specific Aim V: To determine the comparative effectiveness of the laparoscopic and open approaches to adhesiolysis during abdominal re-exploration after prior ventral hernia repair.
The risk for recurrence after ventral hernia repair is often based on reoperation rates with short follow-up rather than recurrences identified by clinical examinations. The purpose of current study is find the real incidence of recurrences 3 years after ventral hernia repair and to compare with the reoperation rate.
The purpose of this study is to compare open abdominal incisional hernia repair using XenMATRIX biologic mesh versus repair with their own tissue. This study will provide information in determining if a biological mesh is necessary to provide a sturdy repair for a ventral hernia.
This is a multi-center, observational study of incisional/ventral hernia repair with NG-TSM laparoscopically. The study is not randomized and has a single treatment design assessing NG-TSM intra-operatively, its ease of use and handling characteristics.
To compare the use of absorbable tackers versus permanent tack fixation using a polyester large pore mesh in laparoscopic midline ventral hernia repair in a multicenter (Belgian) prospective randomized single-blinded trial. All patients referred for elective midline ventral hernia repair should be assessed for eligibility and entered in a study log, detailing all included patients during the study period.
