Filter by:This study compares short term outcomes of patients undergoing a hernia repair with heavy weight mesh vs medium weight mesh in clean-contaminated and contaminated cases.
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.
Prospective cohort study of patients with midline ventral incisional hernia with a range of hernia morphology who plan to undergo open retromuscular VHR. Study groups: Study groups are selected across a range of morphology and based on factors known or suspected to affect the ability to achieve fascial closure. Control groups: The study plans to enlist 5 volunteers with no incisional hernia or prior laparotomy to establish internal baseline SWE values and interrater reliability. The study will also plan to recruit 5 patients undergoing primary laparotomy in order to correlate SWE findings with closure tension.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the functioning of the abdominal wall in patients who underwent hybrid (open- and laparoscopic) incisional hernia repair. The main objective is to assess the anatomical restoration and function of the linea alba one year after surgery by ultrasonography and mean peak torque during trunk flexion using a BioDex machine.
Incisional hernia related to the umbilical trocar site is probably the most frequent complication after laparoscopic surgical procedures. However, this is an underestimated sequelae of laparoscopic surgery which may involve an important morbidity and an increase in healthcare costs. The incidence of incisional trocar site hernia ranges from 20 to 35% of patients after laparoscopic surgery depending on the different investigations. Prophylactic meshes have been tried in an attempt to reduce the incidence of this complication in obese patients. In that sense, suture-meshes can be an alternative to conventional meshes to improve the incidence of incisional hernias. INDURATE TRIAL aims to test if suture-mesh is capable of reducing the incidence of incisional hernia in patients with risk factors for the development of this frequent complication when compared with conventional monofilament sutures.
The 2023 World Journal of Emergency Surgery guidelines couldn't provide a recommendation for emergency abdominal wall closure due to insufficient consensus (>80% required). Available evidence, predominantly retrospective and heterogeneous, lacks differentiation between urgent and elective colorectal surgeries. Therefore, we advocate for a study comparing laparotomy closures in emergency colorectal surgery to contribute evidence on incisional hernia incidence and subsequent complications.
In the latest guidelines for abdominal wall closure in emergency surgery published in the World Journal of Emergency Surgery (WJES) in 2023, no specific recommendations are made in this regard. Current literature does not provide any articles comparing these two types of mesh materials (PP vs PVDF) in emergency colorectal surgery. It is necessary to conduct a study comparing these two types of mesh materials, specifically in high-risk patients for incisional hernia and emergency colorectal surgery. This study aims to contribute to generating evidence regarding differences in wound infection incidence and potential subsequent complications, such as chronic pain. It is essential to conduct a study comparing different methods of laparotomy closure, specifically in emergency colorectal surgery, to contribute valuable evidence regarding the incidence of incisional hernia and potential subsequent complications.
Onlay versus Sublay Mesh hernioplasty in management of incisional Hernia Comparative prospective study (Short term outcomes)
This study aims to comparatively evaluate the early and long-term results of open and endoscopic TAR procedure for large midline incisional ventral hernias.
