incisional hernia/ニコチン

Hernia surgeons and patients have learned to appreciate the advantages of minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures. After overcoming the early learning curve phase, smaller wound surface areas, shorter operation times and briefer hospital stays have become routine. Severe surgery-related

BACKGROUND Subxiphoid hernias are difficult to repair. This study attempts to identify risk factors associated with incisional hernia formation after median sternotomy. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on patients undergoing subxiphoid incisional hernia repair between 1995 and 2002. The

BACKGROUND Recurrence rates for open repair of ventral/incisonal hernias historically range from 6% for the classic Rives-Stoppa repair to 35-45% for some of the techniques more commonly used in the United States. We report a modification to the classic Rives-Stoppa repair that allows

Incisional hernia (IH) is a common complication after colectomy, with impacts on both health care utilization and quality of life. The true incidence of IH after minimally invasive colectomy is not well described. The purpose of this study was to examine IH incidence after minimally invasive right

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify potential parameters as predictors for seroma formation after incisional hernia mesh repair. METHODS The incidence of postoperative seroma was determined prospectively in 37 patients who underwent incisional hernia repair with lightweight

BACKGROUND By increasing intraabdominal pressure, pregnancy may increase the risk of abdominal hernia recurrence. Current data are limited to studies with small sample size and thus the impact of pregnancy on recurrence is unclear. OBJECTIVE The objective of this analysis was to evaluate the impact

Background: Port site hernias (PSH) are underreported following laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR). Most occur at the site of laterally placed 10-12-mm ports used to introduce large pieces of mesh. One alternative is to place the

BACKGROUND The Rives-Stoppa (RS) repair of ventral incisional hernias (VIHR) is technically difficult. It involves the retromuscular placement of mesh anterior to the posterior fascia and the primary closure of the anterior fascia. Recurrence rates are 0-8%. We proposed that the operation could be

Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) has been demonstrated to be a feasible alternative to multiport laparoscopy, but concerns over port-site incisional hernias have not been well addressed. A retrospective study was performed to determine the rate of port-site hernias as well as influencing

UNASSIGNED Despite increased focus on reducing opioid prescribing for long-term pain, little is known regarding the incidence and risk factors for persistent opioid use after surgery. UNASSIGNED To determine the incidence of new persistent opioid use after minor and major surgical

Introduction: To determine the incidence and classification of parastomal hernia (PH) following ileal conduit urinary diversion and to identify risk factors for PH development. Methods:
