Filter by:There is a great expansion in the presentation of complex incisional hernia defects. Primary closure for most cases is impossible with a high rate of recurrence. Component separation provides an autologous repair of the defect but still has considerable recurrence rate. Reinforcement of component separation provides a more strength full repair and may be less recurrence.
Post-operative hernias after cystectomy are frequent (our review of the literature with meta-analysis found an incidence of evisceration at 5%, median eventrations at 8% and peristomal hernias at 14%). These represent a non-negligible and partially morbidity. avoidable, subject to proper assessment of personal and surgical risk factors
244 patients, who have an emergency midline laparotomy for any gastrointestinal reason, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio either to mesh group with a retrorectus prophylactic self-gripping mesh or to control group with 4:1 small stitch closure by continuous monofilament suture. They will be followed up at 30 days, 2 and 5 years to detect the incidence of incisional hernia.
This study compares a synthetic mesh and biological implant in prevention of incisional hernia after loop-ileostomy closure.
Defects in the abdominal wall (incisional hernia) is a frequent negative outcome after surgery. Reinforcing the incision with mesh seem to lower the incidence but in surgery that includes bowel resection a simple alternative, cheaper and less prone to infection than a synthetic mesh, would be of interest. The primary aim of this multicentre randomized controlled trial is to compare the incisional hernia incidence one year after planned colorectal cancer surgery performed through a midline incision which is closed either by a standardized small stitch 4:1 technique (the incision is closed with the use of suture of 4 times the length of the incision) or with the same technique plus a reinforced tension-line suture (a suture is applied in the fibrous tissue parallel to the incision which is then embraced by the 4:1 suture when the incision is closed). A difference in incisional hernia of 15% (20% without and 5% with reinforced tension-line suture) is assumed. Secondary aims are to evaluate incidences of wound dehiscence, other wound complications and incisional hernia after 3 years. Furthermore we aim to evaluate patient satisfaction and quality of life.
The aim of this study is to measure the mesh shrinkage and the visualization of the mesh with MRI scan at 1 month and 13 months after robot assisted retromuscular incisional hernia repair with ipsilateral access and the use of the visible CICAT mesh (Dynamesh®) for defect repair. The investigators also want to measure the volume of the rectus muscles and the change between 1 and 13 months.
It´s a pilot study, randomized, realized in the Central Hospital "Dr. Ignacio Morones Prieto", SLP, Mexico. Hypothesis: The polyethylene mesh is secure in open ventral repair.
Study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized trial evaluating two laparoscopic incisional hernia repair methods: basic laparoscopic mesh repair (lap.) and a hybrid repair (laparoscopic mesh and fascial suturation). Patients are recruited prospectively from 10 Finnish Hospitals (Oulu, Jorvi, Hyvinkää, Kotka, Seinäjoki, Valkeakoski, Lahti, Kuopio, Kokkola, Loimaa). Patients are randomized to operative groups (lap. vs hybrid). Follow-up visits are scheduled at 1- and 12-month after surgery. Patients are evaluated for their clinical status and an ultrasound scan is performed. QoL-questionnaire and pain score (VAS) are reported. The primary end-points: - clinically and/or radiologically detected seroma in 1 month control - clinically and/or radiologically detected recurrent hernia in 1 year control The secondary end-points: - peri-and postoperative outcomes/ complications, morbidity, mortality - duration of hospital stay - pain scale (VAS) - Quality of Life (SF/Rand36)
Nanotechnologies applied to General Surgery and Emergency Surgery: The Buckypaper as a new fixing method for prosthetic materials in the treatment of abdominal wall hernias in humans, in laparotomic procedures and as a new device for the treatment of solid cancer and hematopoietic system tumors. The experimentation on this new material, preliminary conducted on breed female rabbit New Zeeland, will be applicable to human, if the results in terms of toxicity and durability will be comfortable.
