Active clinical trials for "Hernia"

This is a retrospec/ve cohort study of colon cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgeries at Prince Sultan Military Medical City (PSMMC) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The aim of this study is to determine the best site for specimen extrac/on with lowest risk of developing incisional hernia a0er laparoscopic colorectal surgeries.

This study will enroll subjects who underwent a laparoscopic ventral hernia repair utilizing Sepramesh at least 12 months before starting in this study. The consented subjects' medical records will be reviewed for evidence of any risk factors of hernia recurrence, procedure time, complications and any documented recurrences. The subjects will be asked to undergo a physical exam to rule out any recurrences that were not documented in the medical records.

Previous studies have reported that about 3 % of patients who have had open inguinal herniorrhaphy had a visceral, ejaculatory-related pain. The investigators want to assess this problem among patients after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair with(self-administered questionnaire study).

laparoscopic hernia sac high-ligation has a high recurrence rate laparoscopic hernia sac high-ligation and the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the hernia opening The investigators developed a method of laparoscopic hernia repair by applying a new concept in hernia repair. The hernia opening was tightened, and hernia opening region repaired with a lateral umbilicus ligament in a tension-free manner. This method combines the advantages of a secure repair achieved by the open method with the minimal invasiveness of the laparoscopic method. The investigators hypothesized that the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the internal hernia opening region after the laparoscopic purse-string knot would result in lower recurrence and the same operation relative complication.

There are only little data on the risk of chronic complaints (pain and discomfort) following open non-mesh sutured repairs of small umbilical or epigastric hernias. Our primary and secondary endpoints were long-term pain and discomfort at rest, respectively and thirdly recurrence. The setup was a retrospective two-centre study including patients ≥18 years undergoing primary elective open non-mesh sutured umbilical or epigastric hernia repairs. The survey included questions on suspicion of recurrence, reoperation for recurrence (if yes patients were examined by a consultant in patients home), pain, discomfort, work, and leisure activities. We analysed 295 consecutive patients through a non-validated structured questionnaire.

Complex ventral hernia repair is a significant surgical challenge with high frequencies of both wound complications and recurrence. The Ventral Hernia Working Group (VHWG) described in 2010 recommendations regarding grading and technique of repair, which we have followed since November 2011.The purpose of the this study was to evaluate our results after biologic mesh repair of complex hernias.

Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is becoming increasingly popular mainly because of short-term advantages compared to open hernioplasties with mesh. In the prevailing economic climate, the total costs of treatment is a subject of intense research. This study is designed to evaluate the results of open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs, with a special emphasis in costs of treatment, complications and convalescence.

The aim of this study is to evaluate on which indication patients are offered operative treatment for their ventral hernia, and to investigate the natural course of ventral hernia in the population of patients not offered operation.

The aim of the present study is to investigate whether there are differences in indication for ventral hernia repair and surgical approach among hernia surgeons from different geographical regions of Denmark.

The aim of this study was to evaluate collagen turnover in patients with multiple hernias
