Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the feasibility of bilateral laparoscopic exploration for all unilateral cases followed by laparoscopic bilateral TEP repair in all cases with a contralateral occult hernia and to compare complications, recurrence rates, postoperative pain, and operative duration with prospectively performed unilateral repairs in young to middle-aged patients presenting with unilateral hernias in the surgery outpatient department. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To compare complications, recurrence rates, postoperative pain, and operative duration between both groups. - Incidence of occult contralateral hernia Patients attending the OPD for unilateral inguinal hernia were counseled about the trial and fully encouraged to understand the difference between two procedures for unilateral hernia: bilateral exploration and bilateral TEP repair, upon which if a contralateral occult inguinal hernia was observed, documented, and controls were taken from the patients who denied bilateral exploration and underwent unilateral TEP repair. The allotment of patients was done in two groups of 30 patients each. Researchers will compare Group A( bilateral TEP) with Group B (unilateral TEP) to see if complications, recurrence rates, postoperative pain, and operative duration occur in each group
Many patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair are prone to developing acute and chronic post-operative pain. The aim of the study is to show a possible correlation between pain and acute phase proteins in order to: - predict the severity of pain; - select most suitable pain relief therapy for the patient.
This study is Interventional, Parallel, Double-blinded, Randomized study. Subjects aged 20 to 70 years who had a Lumbar discectomy or laminectomy, MegaShield-SP® and Guardix-SP Plus will be applied.
This study investigates on the effect of two different operative techniques to treat abdominal wall hernias. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the eTEP (Extended totally extraperitoneal repair) technique leads to a better outcome than the IPOM (Intraperitoneal onlay mesh) technique. The main questions it aims to answer are: - pain after the operation - rate of complications - rate of recurrence and reoperations - quality of life. Participants will: Either be operated using the eTEP or the IPOM technique. Be followed up either in person or via email / phone call at day 1, day 7, day 14, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1, 3 and 5 years after the surgery to asses the above-stated main and some more outcomes.
This study included patients who underwent surgical treatment for incisional hernia and non-hernia conditions. Surgical specimens were collected for transcriptome sequencing to obtain the gene expression list. Then genes analyzed by Gene Ontology, protein interactions, and signaling pathway enrichment using the expression matrix.
This study investigates on the effect of two different operative techniques to treat large abdominal wall defects. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the minimally-invasive, robotically-assisted ventral hernia repair (RVHR) leads to a better outcome than the open ventral hernia repair (OVHR). The main questions it aims to answer are: length of stay after the operation rate of complications rate of recurrence and reoperations quality of life. Participants will: Either be operated using the RVHR or OVHR will be followed up either in person or via email / phone call at day 7, day 30, 6 months, 1, 3 and 5 years after the surgery to asses the above-stated main and some more outcomes.
All patients of age 6 month to 12 years with inguinal hernia were included in study. Data was collected on detailed proforma regarding age, sex, side ,operative time, cosmesis , and postoperative complications
Brief Summary: Inflammatory back pain is a chronic condition localized in the axial spine and sacroiliac joints.1 It often accompanies mechanical issues like lumbar disc herniation. While non-surgical interventions such as medication, physiotherapy, and epidural steroid injections are typically the initial approach, surgical options may be considered if these prove ineffective.2 Resolvins, derived from omega-3 fatty acids, have shown promise in reducing inflammation and pain. They help to resolve inflammatory responses, promote tissue repair, and decrease disc size, potentially reducing the need for surgery.3,4 This clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of adding oral resolvins to transforaminal epidural steroid injections for treating lumbar disc herniation (LDH) The control group (Group C: n=25) will receive epidural steroids, while the study group (Group R: n=25) will receive both oral omega-3 supplementation and epidural steroids on the same day. Additionally, the study group will continue taking oral omega-3 supplements for six months. The primary outcome measure will be changes in protruded/extruded disc size assessed via MRI, with secondary outcomes including pain levels measured by the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and serum cytokine levels (IL-6, IL-17, IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha) over the study period. Discussion: This trial anticipates that combining the anti-inflammatory properties of resolvins with epidural steroid injection will provide a beneficial treatment for patients suffering from inflammatory low back pain.
- Assess short term outcome of posterior component separation technique(PCS) including the regain of the physiological function of the abdominal wall. - Detect most common post operative complications related to AWR techniques in a 6 months duration after operation.
Several pelvic prolapses can render defecation difficulties and they are often treated with different surgical techniques. This study will evaluate a novel variation of a laparoscopic technique used to treat rectal prolapse that is modified to treat multiple pelvic prolapses. 25 women with symptoms of obstructed defecation and multiple pelvic prolapses are assessed before and after surgery with clinical examination, defecography and a questionnaire for bowel function and quality of life. Follow up was scheduled after three and twelve months and at long term (minimum ten years).
