Active clinical trials for "Internal Hernia"

This trial was designed as a prospective randomized, controlled, intervention, with two parallel groups, and a primary endpoint of recurrence during 12 months' follow-up after initial treatment, with the randomization, was performed by an online software a 1:1 allocation.

Aim of the work In this study, we will evaluate posterior component separation (TAR) technique with or without Botox injection for open huge ventral hernia and large abdominal wall defect repair. The primary outcome will be recurrence while the secondary outcome will be infection, postoperative complications (bleeding and dehiscence), pain score, operative time, hospitalization, need for drain, time for drain removal and pulmonary function test before and after surgery. This prospective clinical study will be performed on 40 eligible patients admitted to general surgery department at Mansoura University Hospi

Patients who underwent ventral abdominal hernia repair with self adhering, atraumatic mesh in sublay position are examined for their recurrence rate

Randomized clinical trial comparing open preperitoneal mesh, retromuscular mesh and suture repair for ventral hernias less than 3 cm diameter

The purpose of this study is to determine whether closure of all mesenteric defects with clips at the time of Gastric bypass, can avoid the complication of late bowel obstruction- internal hernias

The purpose of this study is to: compare the long term results of mesh versus suture repair in treatment of abdominal wall defects; find the optimal location of implanted prosthesis, comparing the two most useful position of mesh in abdominal wall hernia surgery.

The objective of this prospective study is to evaluate short-term, mid-term, and long-term clinical outcomes associated with the use of Permacol™ Biological Implant in the treatment of complex abdominal wall defects

The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of life in patients with abdominal wall hernias using a user-friendly survey that is designed specifically for this population of patients. The investigators would like to use this survey to elucidate how quality of life of the patient is changed with the presence of an abdominal wall hernia.

Cirrhotic patients have a high incidence of abdominal wall hernias. Ascites and sarcopenia are risk factors to development of bigger hernias and frequent need for urgent surgery due parietal complications. However, hernia surgery is usually delayed in cirrhotic patients because of high morbidity and mortality. Methods: A prospective study of cirrhotic patients with abdominal wall hernia during January 2009 to November 2014. Demographics, characteristics of underlying liver disease, type of hernia, complications and mortality of 246 enrolled patients were collected. Elective hernia repair was performed in 57 unselected patients, 186 patients were kept in clinical follow up. During follow up urgent hernia surgery was performed when unavoidable

This study evaluates the abdominal closure technique in emergency surgery. Half of participants will be perform the classic Large Stitch technique, while the other half will undergo the Small Stitch technique.
