Filter by: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.
Patients scheduled for surgery for primary paraesophageal herniation are randomized to either conventional surgical hernia repair or with the addition of gastropexy.
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.
The goal of this study is to evaluate safety and performance of the Fortiva Tissue Matrix. Participants will complete questionnaires to measure outcomes after hernia surgery for two years.
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.
The present proposal aims to asses which is the optimal treatment strategy in a clinical study in patients with paraoesophageal hernia (PEH), a condition often found in elderly, fragile patients The investigator want to study the optimal approach to a paraoesophageal hernia (PEH) repair. The incidence of PEH increases with age and the older patient typically has additional co-morbidities, reduced physiological fitness, and frailty which makes surgery challenging regarding increased morbidity and mortality. Thus, the decision to offer surgery can be challenging in this cohort of patients. The need of an anti-reflux procedure as part of the repair is one of the main subjects for discussion worldwide. To date no consensus exists and many surgical centres do a routine anti-reflux procedure as part of their standard operation for PEH. But is this procedure redundant? Can the patients be managed with a less complicated procedure; an anterior gastropexy with comparable outcome?
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety bilateral recto-intercostal fascial plane block (RIFPB) in epigastric hernia.
Parastomal hernia (PSH) is difficult to manage, with high rates of post-operative recurrence and complication. Keyhole and Sugarbaker are the most commonly used techniques in the surgical repair of the PSH. However, the efficacy and safety of the two surgical methods have not been adequately compared in the East Asian population. Patients diagnosed with PSH who underwent Sugarbaker or Keyhole repair from August 2012 to August 2022 will be included. Patient demographic data and postoperative outcomes will be retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcome measure is the recurrence rate at one year follow-up time.
