Active clinical trials for "Hernia, Inguinal"

This an a case report about management and proving the strenght and resistance of LiquiBandFIX8® using for peritoneal closure in a laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal groin hernia repair. The patient had anticoagulation due to a mechanical valvula and postoperatively the patient developed a huge hematoma extraperitoneally. Relaparoscopy war performed to identify the problem and check the peritoneal closure.

This study aim to describe the presence, type and size of Corona mortis (CMOR) in patients undergoing total extraperitoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair procedures. This study also aim to describe the preperitoneal vascular anatomy of inguinal area and provide in vivo knowledge about CMOR.

This retrospective study investigates if robotic assisted groin hernia repair in patients who previously underwent abdominal prostatectomy has an equal or more favorable clinical outcome, compared to open repair in those patients.

To analyze and validate a preoperative score of difficulty of inguinal hernias and its correlation with postoperative outcomes

Retrospective review of hernia surgery patients at HHMcGuire VAMC focusing on repair type and postoperative complications.

A multicenter observational study trial validating Quality of Life assessment using EuraHS Quality of Life score and Carolinas Comfort scale™ in patients before and after laparoscopic unilateral inguinal hernia repair. Depending on the treating physician patients will receive a TAPP or TEP repair for their inguinal hernia and a self-gripping mesh will be used for the repair (Parietex Progrip Mesh). Primary endpoint will be assessment by the EuraHS-QoL at 1 year after laparoscopic repair of an unilateral inguinal hernia using the Anatomic ProGrip™ Laparoscopic self-fixating mesh. Secondary endpoints are assessment of the QoL 3 preoperative, 3 weeks and 1 year postoperative, recurrence rate at 12 months, intra-operative and post-operative complications, post-operative hospital stay, operation time and time to place the mesh, VAS (Visual Analog Scale) for pain at several control points, VRS (Verbal Rating Score) for pain at 3 weeks and 12 months, pain medication needed.

Prospective, multicenter, observational registry to collect data of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair using surgical tissue glue fixation. The objective is to determine the prevalence of chronic pain at 1 year.

Inguinal hernia repair is the most common procedure in general surgery. Even with acceptable complication rates, thousands of patients worldwide suffer from inguinal hernia surgery complications every year. In Finland, the Finnish Patient Insurance Centre (FPIC) receives reports from surgical complications. In this study, the database of FPIC is used to compare the complication profiles of open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery with mesh.

The histology of the internal inguinal ring in patients with indirect hernia submitted to elective surgery was studied. In contrast with recently published studies, the investigators believe that histological findings of the internal inguinal ring would reflect those associated and expected with normal aging.

The role of laparoscopic surgery in pediatric inguinal hernia repair is clear. Laparoscopic hernia repair is especially advantageous for bilateral diseases and minimally invasive technique in children because it avoids vas injury. However, the problem of recurrent rate has not been resolved. The aim of this study was to refine the current criteria used the lateral umbilicus ligament covering the internal hernia opening region, and eliminated recurrence in laparoscopic inguinal hernia (LIH) repair in children. 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
