Filter by:Background: Ventral hernia repair poses challenges for surgeons due to controversies in approach, patient selection, and mesh selection. The GORE® SYNECOR Intraperitoneal (IP) Biomaterial, a hybrid mesh, aims to balance durability and infection risk. Objective: To analyze extended-term outcomes of using the Intaperitoneal device for ventral and incisional hernia repair. Methods: Retrospective analysis of patients undergoing surgery in eight Italian Surgery Centers, evaluating pIPOM and sIPOM techniques with GORE® SYNECOR IP Biomaterial. Preoperative evaluations included anthropometric measurements, comorbidities, CT scans, and GIQLI assessments. Surgical procedures and interventions were recorded. Postoperative complications, GIQLI changes, cosmesis, hernia recurrence, and mesh bulging were assessed.
Inguinal hernia surgery has undergone significant and extensive transformation, including the advent of tissue-based repairs and later, tension-free repairs with the acceptance of prosthetic mesh. However, there is still significant pain associated with the use of mesh, as well as the risk of potential injury to neurovascular structures. In the pediatric population, non-mesh laparoscopic high-ligation repair of indirect inguinal hernias is one of the most common procedures performed. High-ligation of indirect inguinal hernias in the adolescent population is also effective, with a low recurrence rate and low incidence of chronic symptoms, but this technique is uncommonly used by adult hernia surgeons due to concern for recurrence.The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot trial to examine the efficacy of high-ligation repair of indirect inguinal hernias in adult patients. Our hypothesis is that the laparoscopic, non-mesh repair technique is an effective method of repairing indirect inguinal hernias, with an acceptable recurrence rate and decreased postoperative pain. This pilot trial will allow the design of a randomized clinical trial comparing the efficacy of this technique to other standard repair techniques.
This multicenter retrospective study analyzed data from 308 patients who underwent open Posterior Component separation with Trasversus release for primary or recurrent complex abdominal hernias between 2015 and 2020. The primary endpoint was the rate of Hernia Recurrence and Mesh Bulging at 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months. Secondary outcomes included surgical site events and were assessed using the Pain scale.
ABSTRACT Purpose：A retrospective study was conducted among patients with incisional hernia in our hospital to analyse the factors associated with postoperative recurrence of abdominal wall incisional hernia. Methods：Patients with a diagnosis of incisional hernia obtained from our hospital's electronic medical record system were divided into primary incisional hernia group and recurrent incisional hernia group according to whether or not they had a recurrence after surgery. Baseline information on these patients was recorded and statistically analysed after our review.
Cervical disc herniation is a common source of cervical radiculopathy, which can occur suddenly due to trauma and results from chemical and mechanical degenerative changes that occur over time, with an annual incidence of 1.6 per 100,000 and is more common in people in the third to fifth decades of life. The prevalence of cervical disc herniation increases with age in both men and women. It is more common in women and accounts for more than 60% of cases. Cervical disc herniation is a spine disease that seriously affects the quality of life of patients and imposes a heavy economic burden on individuals and society. In recent years, with the widespread use of mobile phones and computers and the increase in the life pressure of today's people, the incidence of cervical disc herniation has shown a younger trend. The role of surgical and non-surgical treatment of patients with cervical disc herniation has not been adequately investigated. While the majority of published data reflects surgical outcomes, there is little data on the outcomes of patients treated without surgery. The most commonly used non-surgical treatments are manipulation, mobilization, kinesiology taping and therapeutic exercises along with electrotherapy agents such as laser therapy, TENS, vacuum interferential and traction. Exercise is considered one of the evidence-based methods to reduce pain in cervical disc herniation, prevent further injury, increase muscle strength, endurance and flexibility, improve proprioception, and contribute to and maintain normal life activities. Exercises used in neck pain in the literature consist of various exercises such as cervical isometrics, cervical concentric/eccentric exercises using pulley systems or weights, upper extremity exercises using dumbbells or deep neck flexor/extensor rehabilitation. Isometric exercises are effective in treating neck pain, range of motion and disability.
The aim of this study is to compare laparoscopic -assisted, ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block and laparoscopic intraperitoneal instillation of local anesthetic in pediatrics undergoing inguinal hernia repair.
Nationwide cohort study on women undergoing epigastric hernia repair
The purpose of this study was to compare between laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) repair of inguinal hernia in recurrent inguinal hernia.
Physical therapy and rehabilitation may improve low back pain and quality of life after lumbar disc herniation. But there is not any agreement of its optimal start time, and rehabilitative methods. This study evaluates the effects of early and late rehabilitation to the low back pain and quality of life following unilateral microdiscectomy.
The T-GENVIH-003 study will collect additional, longer term performance data of Gentrix® Surgical Matrix used for reinforcement of ventral hernia repairs from a subset population (i.e., the twenty-one minimally invasive surgical approach cases) from the prior T-GENVIH-002 study.
