Filter by:Introduction: By definition, the laparotomy is a surgical incision into the abdomen cavity performed to examine the abdominal and retroperitoneal organs. The evisceration/eventration and the hernia are considered the most frequent complication of the midline laparotomy with a high morbidity and mortality related. Conditions that will require a second intervention, in Mexico represent the seventh cause of elective surgery and fourth cause of emergency procedures. The objective of this study is to determine if the incidence of post-incisional hernia in patients with high risk after a midline laparotomy are similar between the closure of the abdominal wall with the RTL technique and the supraaponeurotic mesh closure reinforcement. Material and Methods: Clinical trial comparing the use of mesh against the RTL technique for post-incisional hernia prophylaxis. Two groups, triple blind Analysis will be carried out with intent to treat and not inferiority with 95% confidence intervals
Postoperative analgesia management in inguinal hernia surgery is difficult because of the content of the surgical procedure. A multimodal approach to postoperative analgesia has recently been proposed. For this reason, various methods are used.Regional blocks, pharmacological treatments are among these methods. Among the regional blocks, ilioinguinal and hypogastric blocks are used more safely and with increasing frequency, especially with the introduction of ultrasonography in the clinic.Forero et al. firstly, erector spinae block which was used for the first time in the treatment of thoracic neuropathic pain has been widely used especially in laparoscopic abdominal surgery and it has taken its place in the literature. It is performed at T4-5 level in breast and thoracic surgery and T7 level in abdominal surgery. In this block, local anesthesia between the erector spina muscle and the transverse protrusion of the vertebra was used to create analgesia in the anterior abdominal wall. In this study, we planned to investigate degree of postoperative pain, sensory block levels, analgesic consumption, propofol-remifentanyle consumption and side effects of patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery under general anesthesia with erector spinae block.
Introduction. The goal of our study was to compare results in patients with large midline incisional hernia (LMIH) using only anterior compònent separation (CST) versus preoperative botulinum toxin (BT) and following Rives repair (RSR). Material and methods. From to December 2016 to December 2018, a prospective comparative study was performed in 80 consecutive patients with LMIH and hernia transverse diameter between 12-18 cms at our tertiary center. Two groups were prospectively analyzed: patients underwent open CST (component separation group or CSG) and patients with preoperative BT administration and following open RSR (botulinum toxin group or BTG).
This study evaluates efficacy of stabilizing training of deep core muscles in the lumbar spine in degenerative disc disease subjects, considering the progression level of degenerative disc disease: protrusion or extrusion.
Hernia repair in sublay technique is widely accepted for ventral hernias, as it appears to be advantageous in terms of complication and recurrence rates. Recently, self-gripping meshes are increasingly used for hernia repair with retromuscular mesh positioning. However, real-life data on the safe use in that specific indication are still lacking. Therefore, this study evaluated short-term postoperative outcome of self-gripping versus conventional non-self-gripping meshes in sublay hernia repair.
60 patients involved were divided into two matched groups; Group A: 30 patients were treated with conventional fenestration laminectomy and discectomy and Group B: 30 patients were treated with microdiscectomy. The age of the patients involved in this study ranged from 19 years old to 46 years old
This study is intends to compare mean postoperative pain scores for 48-hours in patients undergoing Inguinal hernioplasty with and without hernia sac ligation in Department of Surgery, Dow University of Health Sciences & Dr. Ruth K. M. Pfau Civil Hospital Karachi.Half of the patients undergoing inguinal hernioplasty will have their indirect inguinal sacs ligated whereas other half will have non-ligation and inversion of sac.
Ultrasound (US)-guided peripheral nerve blocks have been used increasily due to the advantages of ultrasound in anesthesia practice. TLIP block is one of these nerve blocks performed under US guidance. In this technique, local anesthetic solution is injected between the multifidus and logissimus muscles nearly at the level of the 3rd lumbar vertebra and targets the dorsal rami of the thoracolumbar nerves. However, the visualisation of this technique may be difficult under US guidance. Therefore, modified-TLIP (mTLIP) block was defined as a new approach. It has been reported that mTLIP block may provide effective analgesia management after lumbar spine surgery. The ultrasound (US) guided erector spina plane block (ESPB) is a novel interfacial plan block defined by Forero et al. at 2016. Visualization of sonoanatomy with US is easy, and the spread of local anesthesic agents can be easily seen under the erector spinae muscle. Thus, analgesia occurs in several dermatomes with cephalad-caudad way. It has been reported that ESPB provides lumbar analgesia at T10-12, L3. The aim of this study is to compare US-guided mTLIP block and ESPB pain management after lumbar discectomy+ surgery.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of pulse magnetic field therapy on pain, functional status, and quality of life in patients with chronic radicular pain due to lumbar disc herniation.
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.
