Active clinical trials for "Hernia"

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether chronic postoperative pain is less frequent and quality of life better when inguinal mesh is fixed by using tissue glue compared to conventional sutures in inguinal hernioplasty.

The purpose of this randomized study is to determine whether a type of mesh derived from a layer of pig small intestine (SIS) is of benefit in treating paraesophageal hernias versus standard surgical suture repair.

Aim is to evaluate outcomes of inguinal hernia repair incorporating the standard Lichtenstein (open) repair using Biodesign IHM in a double blind (physician evaluator and patient will be blinded), randomized, prospective comparative study with polypropylene mesh. Primary outcome is recurrence at 1 year. Hernia recurrence will be confirmed via ultrasound or CT scan.

The purpose of this study was to compare between laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) repair of inguinal hernia in recurrent inguinal hernia.

Evaluating the outcomes of patients undergoing open anterior inguinal hernioplasty comparing two different techniques: Lichtenstein/plug and mesh and ProFlor. The outcomes of these two groups of patients, respectively the Lichtenstein inguinal hernia repair with static flat mesh and the defect obliteration with 3D dynamic scaffold Proflor, are compared in respect to defined variables along stages: intraoperative, early and long term postoperative.

"A bio-mechanically compatible, minimally invasive technique for recurrence-free groin hernia repair by implantation of Tensiflex mesh prosthesis for the enhancement of the tissue tensile strength of the fascia transversalis."

The aim of this study was to assessment on the interaction of spatial and temporal gait parameters and gait asymmetry in patients with Lumbar Disc Herniation (LDH) before and 15 days after surgery.

Because it avoids direct nerve irritation or entrapment, mesh fixation with tissue adhesive glue seems an optimal option to reduce postoperative pain. Indeed, preliminary results published with different glues all showed promising results with reduced postoperative pain. This randomized controlled study aimed to compare mesh fixation using N-butyl 2-cyanoacrylate with classical suture fixation in Lichtenstein hernia repair in terms of chronic groin pain, postoperative complications, operative time and recurrence.

CycloMesh is a polyester visceral implant functionalized by drug delivery systems directly on its surface, targeting a unique intervention, a slow anesthetic release and an in situ activity. Based on the fact that cyclodextrins are capable of forming inclusion complexes with amino-amide anaesthetic agents, ropivacaine and cyclodextrins were combined on a commercial visceral mesh.This enables CycloMesh to release ropivacaine for a sustained period in order to improve patient's comfort after inguinal hernia surgery. The underlying hypothesis of this work is that clinical gain is achieved by adding a drug delivery system to visceral mesh for the local and prolonged delivery of ropivacaine. This should results in an improvement in quality of life, a reduction in pain and a faster returning to work following treatment of inguinal hernia by lichtenstein technique.

Recent years, lots of treatment teqnique have development. We aimed that comparising the normal and small size meshes in the inguinal hernia patients.
