About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Rectum Cancer focused on measuring loop-ileostomy reversal, hernia prevention

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Anterior resection and TME with temporary loop-ileostomy for rectal carcinoma
  • 18 years or older
  • Patient has a life expectancy of at least 12 months.
  • Patient signs the Informed consent and agrees to attend all study visits

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient with a comorbid illness or condition that would precluded the use of surgery (ASA 4-5).
  • Patients with concurrent or previous malignant tumors within 5 years before study enrollment
  • Patients with T4b tumors which imposed a multi-organ resection
  • Patient undergone emergency procedures
  • Primary rectal surgery along with major concomitant procedures (e.g. hepatectomies, other intestinal resections).
  • Metastatic disease with life expectancy of less than 12 months
  • Pregnancy or suspected pregnancy

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study compares a synthetic mesh and biological implant in prevention of incisional hernia after loop-ileostomy closure.
Detailed Description
Incisional hernia after loop-ileostomy closure may be an underestimated problem. Research on both biological and synthetic mesh in this context is scarce and no randomized controlled trials comparing meshes exist. The aim of this study is to compare Parietene Macro and Permacol in prevention of incisional site hernia after temporary loop-ileostomy reversal after anterior resection and TME for rectal cancer.
