Filter by:This will be a multi-center prospective observational study of all patients who undergo laparoscopic pyloromyotomy. Subjects who have PPV will be followed up to just before their 18th birthday through annual phone calls or emails to determine the incidence and timing of subsequent inguinal hernia.
Surgical intervention to treat a inguinal hernia is a very common pediatric surgical procedure, often performed using an inguinal incision. Children who undergo hernia repair can suffer from a significant degree of discomfort postoperatively. The investigators are evaluating the effectiveness of an ultrasound guided caudal-epidural (CE) block to an US guided ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric (IIG/IHG) nerve block in achieving post operative analgesia following a hernia repair. It is hypothesized that US guided IIG/IHG nerve block leads to more effective pain control post-operatively while in hospital relative to an US guided CE block for inguinal hernia surgery.
To investigate the advantages and disadvantages of the anterior transversalis fascia approach versus the preperitoneal approach for inguinal hernia repair in residents from northern China regarding common postoperative complications (including acute and chronic pain, wound infection, rates of wound infection, hematoma, seroma, and hernia recurrence) and severe postoperative complications.
Inguinal hernia is a common disease in children. Treatment of this disease by laparoscopic high ligation of the hernia sac has been accepted by domestic and foreign scholars. Since laparoscopic inguinal hernia was introduced in 1990,it has now become the most commonly performed hernia repair in children. The conventional approach this is done with2small trocars to 1trocar . however the wound complications of infection and pain and the recurrent rate have not been resolved. The aim of the study was to described a new way of extra-peritoneal high ligation of hernia sac. This method combines the single-port laparoscopic could eliminated rate of wound complications and recurrence in inguinal hernia repair in children. The investigators hoped that this study will prove that the extra-peritoneal single-port laparoscopic repair is at least a s effective and efficient as the conventional technique in the cure of inguinal hernia and may results in lower recurrence and reduce incidence of wound complications.
This study aims to visualize the implanted mesh in vivo by MRI in 20 patients at 1 month and 12 months post-operatively. Moreover, we want to evaluate the safety and efficiency of non-penetration mesh fixation techniques using pre-designed ENDOLAP 3D visible mesh placement versus mesh fixation using a synthetic LiquiBand Fix 8 glue for laparoscopic treatment of groin hernias. A total of 100 male and female patients will be entered in the trial in Maria Middelares Ghent, for which an inclusion period of 24 months is anticipated. Four surgeons of the department of surgery will screen all eligible consecutive patients for inclusion in the study. They will inform all patients about the surgery and the follow-up with MRI scan thereafter.
This is a RCT on drain versus no drain after laparoscopic totally extra-peritoneal hernioplasty. We will assess the difference in seroma formation after surgery in 2 two groups by an independent assessor clinically and radiologist to document the size of seroma after surgery. Other secondary outcomes will be measured including post-operative pain, discomfort, analgesic used, patient satisfaction, recurrence of hernia, wound infection, etc.
A newly developed technique of TAP block solely performed by surgeons will be used for postoperative pain relief following laparoscopic total extra peritoneal (TEP) Inguinal hernia repair. Our alternative hypothesis is that laparoscopic-assisted TAP block is better than the periportal wound infiltration in controlling the postoperative pain.
This study aims to assess the need to stop Aspirin before elective laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. It will consist of 2 arms: patients who continue to take Aspirin perioperatively and patients who stop Aspirin 5-7 days before the surgery.
This prospective randomized is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hernia repairs using local anesthesia compared with those using general anesthesia for patients with incarcerated hernia.
Prospective observational study with mesh fixation using FDA approved synthetic glue,glubran 2 and standard mesh fixation with stiches in primary inguinal hernia repair surgery. The investigators aim is to recruit 150 patients for the study. The outcomes The investigators would like to determine are : postoperative pain,recurrences and complication rates such as seromas.
