Background
The purpose of this study was to determine the rate of surgical site infection for open elective umbilical hernia repairs and to identify the factors related to an increased risk of infection and/or recurrence.Methods
A retrospective analysis of 152 open elective umbilical hernia repairs between 2003 and 2007 was performed.Results
Overall, 19% of repairs became infected. Both high ASA classification (P = .01) and mesh repair (P = .01) significantly predicted wound infection, whereas age >60 years, body mass index >30, smoking, immunosuppression, diabetes, and hernia size did not. Only 2 of 17 infected mesh repairs required removal of the mesh. The recurrence rate was 1.5% for mesh and 9.2% for suture repairs.Conclusions
Umbilical hernia repair is associated with a high rate of infection, and most superficial mesh infections can be treated with antibiotics alone. In addition, mesh repair of umbilical hernias decreased the rate of recurrence but increased the risk of infection compared with suture repairs. 相似文献2.

Background
Quality of life has become an important focus for improvement in hernia repair.Methods
The International Hernia Mesh Registry was queried. The Carolinas Comfort Scale quantitated quality of life at 1-month, 6-month, and annual follow-up. Scores of 0 (completely asymptomatic) in all categories without recurrence defined an ideal outcome.Results
The analysis consisted of 363 umbilical hernia repairs; 18.7% were laparoscopic. Demographics included age of 51.5 ± 13.8 years, 24.5% were female, and the average body mass index was 30.63 ± 5.9 kg/m2. Mean defect size was 4.3 ± 3.1 cm2. Mean follow-up was 18.2 months. Absent/minimal preoperative symptoms were predictive of ideal outcome at all time points and increasing age was predictive at 6 months and 1 year. At 6 months, the use of fixation sutures alone versus tacks (odds ratio 14.1) predicted ideal outcome.Conclusions
Ideal outcomes are dependent on both patient-specific and operative factors. The durable, ideal outcome in umbilical hernia repair is most likely in an older, asymptomatic patient who undergoes mesh fixation with permanent suture. 相似文献3.

Background
Lichtenstein tension-free mesh repair is the most commonly used technique for open inguinal hernia. However, mesh fixation with sutures to avoid dislocation has been considered as a cause of chronic pain and discomfort. A new self-gripping mesh (Parietene Progrip; Coviden) has been developed, which is making the use of sutureless for inguinal hernia repair. The aim of this systematic review was to compare the outcomes of open Lichtenstein inguinal hernia repair using new self-gripping mesh or sutured mesh.Methods
PubMed/MEDLINE, CENTRAL, and reference lists were searched for controlled trials of self-gripping mesh versus sutured mesh for open inguinal hernia repair from January 2005 to February 2013. The primary outcomes were chronic pain and recurrence. Secondary outcomes were duration of operation, wound infection, hematoma, seroma formation, postoperative pain, hospital stay, and time to return to work. The methodology was in accordance with the Cochrane Handbook for interventional systematic reviews and written based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement.Results
A total of seven studies, representing 1353 patients were included. There was no effect on chronic pain (risk difference −0.02 [95% confidence interval −0.07 to 0.03], P = 0.40) or recurrence (risk difference −0.00 [95% confidence interval −0.01 to 0.01], P = 0.57). No significant differences were noted in terms of secondary outcomes, such as wound infection, hematoma, and seroma formation, between self-gripping and sutured mesh repair. But the mean operative duration was shorter in the self-gripping mesh group than sutured mesh group.Conclusions
Based on the results, both meshes appear to result in similar postoperation outcomes. Further long-term analysis may guide surgeon selection of adapted mesh for inguinal hernia repair. 相似文献4.

Background
The primary aim of this study was to determine whether mesh pore size influences the rate of chronic pain at 6-mo follow-up. Another aim was to evaluate the rate of foreign body feeling and quality of life after inguinal hernia repair.Methods
The patients were randomized into two study groups: the UM group received Ultrapro mesh (pore size 3–4 mm) and the OM group received Optilene LP mesh (pore size 1 mm). Pain scores were measured on a visual analog scale. The feeling of a foreign body was a yes-or-no question. Quality of life was evaluated using the Medical Outcome Study Short-Form-36 questionnaire.Results
A total of 67 patients in the UM group and 67 patients in the OM group were investigated 6 mo after operation. There were no significant differences in the results of the pain questionnaire between the study groups. Of the patients, 46.3% in the UM group reported pain during different activities at 6-mo follow-up versus 34.3% in the OM group (P = 0.165). The feeling of a foreign body in the inguinal region was experienced by 47.8% of the patients in the UM group and by 31.3% of the patients in the OM group at 6-mo follow-up (P = 0.052; risk ratio 1.52, 95% confidence interval: 1.00–2.37). There were no significant differences in the quality of life according to the Short-Form 36 questionnaire between the two study groups at 6-mo follow-up. In both study groups, the quality of life scores improved after operation by most dimensions.Conclusions
Differences in mesh pore size did not influence the rate of chronic pain. Although there was a trend for higher rate of foreign body feeling in the study group where a mesh with larger pores was used, we failed to find an explanation for this. The pore size of meshes investigated in this study did not affect the quality of life after inguinal hernia repair. Considering the fact that the quality of life improved significantly after operation, elective repair of symptomatic inguinal hernias should be undertaken as promptly as possible. 相似文献5.

Background and Objectives:
Mesh fixation in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair is poorly studied. We compared postoperative outcomes of laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair in suture versus tack mesh fixation.Methods:
Patients who underwent laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair were separated by method of mesh fixation: sutures versus primarily tacks. Medical history and follow-up data were collected through medical records. The primary outcome of this study was the recurrence rates of hernias. Postoperative major and minor complications, such as surgical site infection, small-bowel obstruction, and seroma formation, were regarded as secondary outcomes. Additionally, a telephone interview was conducted to assess postoperative pain, recovery time, and overall patient satisfaction.Results:
Eighty-six patients were identified: 33 in the suture group and 53 in the tacks group. The number of emergent cases was increased in the tacks group (6 vs 0; P = .022). Mean follow-up time was 2.7 years for both groups. Documented postoperative follow-up was obtained in 29 (90%) suture group and 31 (58%) tacks group patients. Hernia recurrence occurred in 3 and 2 patients in the sutures and tacks groups, respectively (P was not significant). No differences were found in secondary outcomes, including subjective outcomes from telephone interviews, between groups.Conclusions:
There are no differences in postoperative complication rates in suture versus tack mesh fixation in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair. 相似文献6.

Background
Fevers often arise after redo fundoplication with hiatal hernia repair. We reviewed our experience to evaluate the yield of a fever work-up in this population.Methods
We performed a retrospective review of children undergoing redo Nissen fundoplication with hiatal hernia repair between December 2001 and September 2012. Temperatures and fever evaluations of those children receiving a mesh repair were compared with those without mesh. A fever defined as temperature ≥38.4°C.Results
Fifty one children received 46 laparoscopic, 4 open, and 1 laparoscopic converted to open procedures. Biosynthetic mesh was used in 25 children whereas 26 underwent repair without mesh. A fever occurred in 56% of those repaired with mesh compared with 23.1% without mesh (P = 0.02). A fever evaluation was conducted in 32% of those with mesh compared with 11.5% without mesh (P = 0.52). A urinary tract infection was identified in one child after mesh use and an infection was identified in two children without mesh, one pneumonia and one wound infection (P = 1). In those repaired with mesh, there was no significant difference in maximum temperature.Conclusions
Fever is common after redo Nissen fundoplication with hiatal hernia repair and occurs more frequently, and with higher temperatures in those with mesh. Fever work-up in these patients is unlikely to yield an infectious source and is attributed to the extensive dissection during the redo procedure. 相似文献7.

Background
The efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis for the prevention of surgical-site infection (SSI) after open tension-free inguinal hernia repair remains controversial.Methods
A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted. Patients who underwent elective open mesh-plug hernia repair were eligible for randomization. In the antibiotic prophylaxis group, 1.0 g cefazolin was intravenously administrated 30 minutes before the incision. In the placebo group, an equal volume of sterile saline was administered. The primary end point was the incidence of SSI.Results
A total of 200 patients were enrolled. SSI developed in 2 of 100 patients (2%) in the antibiotic prophylaxis group and 13 of 100 patients (13%) in the placebo group, indicating a significant difference between the 2 groups (relative risk ratio, 0.25; 95% confidence interval, 0.070 to 0.92; P = .003). Other complications occurred in 23 patients: 7 (7%) in the antibiotic prophylaxis group and 16 (16%) in the placebo group (P = .046).Conclusions
This study indicates that antibiotic prophylaxis is effective for the prevention of SSI after open mesh-plug hernia repair. 相似文献8.

Background
Repair of contaminated abdominal wall defects entails the dilemma of choosing between synthetic material, with its presumed risk of surgical site complications, and biologic material, a costly alternative with questionable durability.Data sources
Thirty-two studies published between January 1990 and June 2015 on repair of (potentially) contaminated hernias with ≥25 patients were reviewed. Fifteen studies solely described hernia repair with biologic mesh, 6 nonabsorbable synthetic meshes, and 11 described various techniques. Surgical site complications and hernia recurrence rates were evaluated per degree of contamination and mesh type by calculating pooled proportions.Conclusions
Analysis showed no benefit of biologic over synthetic mesh for repair of potentially contaminated hernias with comparable surgical site complication rates and a hernia recurrence rate of 9% for biologic and 9% for synthetic repair. Biologic mesh repair of contaminated defects showed considerable higher rates of surgical site complications and a hernia recurrence rate of 30%. As only 1 study on synthetic repair of contaminated hernias was available, surgical decision making in the approach of contaminated abdominal wall defects is hampered. 相似文献9.

Background
Mesh techniques are the preferable methods for repair of small ventral hernias, as a primary suture repair shows high recurrence rates. The aim of this prospective study was to compare the retromuscular sublay technique with the intraperitoneal underlay technique for primary umbilical hernias.Methods
From February 2004 to April 2007, all patients treated for umbilical hernias with maximum diameters of 3 cm were prospectively followed. During the first period of 15 months, all patients were treated with retromuscular repair using a large pore mesh (Vypro). After that period, for all patients, mesh repair using an intraperitoneal Ventralex patch was performed. All patients underwent general anesthesia. This analysis included 116 patients, of whom 56 had retromuscular repair (group I; mean age, 54.8 years; mean body mass index, 28.2 kg/m2) and 60 had open intraperitoneal repair (group II; mean age, 48.1 years; mean body mass index, 29.4 kg/m2). Operating time was evaluated as skin-to-skin time, and drain management was noted for both techniques. Follow-up was ≥2 years for all patients, and both early and late complications were registered, including seroma and hematoma formation, wound infection, fistula formation, and recurrence rates. Preoperative and postoperative pain was evaluated using a visual analogue scale (range, 0–10) on the day of the first outpatient visit; on postoperative days 1, 7, and 21; and after 1 year. Quality of life was estimated using the EQ-5D questionnaire 1 year after surgery. All data were analyzed using SPSS version 15 software. Wilcoxon's rank-sum test was used to analyze continuous variables, and repeated-measures analysis of variance was used for visual analogue scale scores. The χ2 test and Fisher's exact test were used to assess the differences between categorical data. P values < .05 were considered statistically significant.Results
The mean operative times were 79.9 minutes in group I and 33.9 minutes in group II (P < .001). The mean hospital stay was significantly longer in group I (3.8 vs 2.1 days, P < .001). Seromas and superficial wound infections in the early postoperative period were not different between both groups, although seromas occurred more frequent in the retromuscular group. Postoperative visual analogue scale scores were significantly lower with the intraperitoneal technique at all time points (P < .003, repeated-measures analysis of variance). However, 3 patients with the Ventralex patch had to be readmitted for severe pain. The recurrence rate was higher with the intraperitoneal repair (n = 5 [8.3%] vs n = 2 [3.6%]) than for the retromuscular mesh repair, but not statistically significant. Quality of life was comparable in the two groups after 1 year.Conclusions
The open intraperitoneal technique using a Ventralex mesh for umbilical hernias seems a very elegant and quick technique. However, possibly because of the less controllable mesh deployment, recurrence rates seem higher. In case open mesh repair is the preferred treatment, a retromuscular repair should be the first choice. 相似文献10.

Background
It has been suggested that there is an increased morbidity and mortality risk for diabetics undergoing elective aortic surgery. This, however, is not universally accepted. In this study, we utilize a national database to determine if diabetes is associated with adverse outcomes following open, elective, infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair.Methods
The American College of Surgeons’ National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried to identify all patients who underwent an open, elective, nonruptured AAA repair from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2007. Patient demographics, comorbidities, and outcomes were compared by diabetes status. Multivariate analysis was performed adjusting for demographics and comorbidities.Results
There were 2110 American College of Surgeons’ National Surgical Quality Improvement Program patients who underwent an open, elective, nonruptured AAA repair during this time period. Of these patients, 245 (11.6%) had diabetes mellitus. The overall mortality rate was 3.7% (5.3% for diabetics and 3.5% for nondiabetics, P = 0.171).On bivariate analysis, diabetics were more likely to present preoperatively with cardiovascular and renal comorbidities. Postoperatively, there was no significant difference in mortality or in cardiac, pulmonary, or renal complications. Diabetics were more likely to develop superficial surgical site infections (SSIs) (4.5% versus 1.6%, P = 0.002).On multivariate regression, there was no difference in mortality or major complications between diabetics and nondiabetics (OR 1.4, 95% CI 0.68–2.71). Diabetics, however, were almost three times more likely to develop superficial SSIs (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.29–6.00).Conclusions
Diabetes mellitus is not associated with significantly worse major outcomes following open, elective, infrarenal AAA repair. Diabetics, however, are more likely to develop superficial SSIs. 相似文献11.
Background
The objective of this article was to compare the outcomes of self-gripping mesh (GM) with sutured mesh (SM) in open inguinal hernia repair.Methods
A systematic review and meta-analysis were taken to compare the outcomes of GM and SM in open inguinal hernia repair.Results
A total of 1,353 patients in 6 randomized controlled trials and 2 observational studies were reviewed (666 patients in GM group; 687 patients in SM group). The 2 groups did not significantly differ in chronic groin pain (P = .23) or recurrence (P = .59). The operating time was significantly shorter in GM group (P < .00001). There was no significant difference in infection (P = .18), seromas (P = .35), hematomas (P = .87), or discomfort (P = .58) between the 2 groups.Conclusions
The data showed that GM was equivalent to SM in open inguinal hernia repair. However, this new mesh still needs to be confirmed in large, multi-center, well-designed randomized controlled trials. 相似文献12.

Background
The model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) has been validated as a prediction tool for postoperative mortality, but its role in predicting morbidity has not been well studied. We sought to determine the role of MELD, among other factors, in predicting morbidity and mortality in patients with nonmalignant ascites undergoing hernia repair.Methods
All patients undergoing hernia repair in the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement database (2009–11) were identified. Those with nonmalignant ascites were compared with patients without ascites. A subset analysis of patients with nonmalignant ascites was performed to evaluate the association between MELD and morbidity and mortality with adjustment for potential confounders. The association of significant factors with the rate of morbidity was displayed using a best-fit polynomial regression.Results
Of 138,366 hernia repairs, 778 (0.56%) were performed on patients with nonmalignant ascites. Thirty-day morbidity (4% versus 19%) and mortality (0.2% versus 5.3%) were significantly more frequent in patients with ascites (P < 0.001). In univariate analysis of the 636 patients with a calculable MELD, MELD was associated with both morbidity and mortality (P < 0.001 each). In multivariate analysis, MELD remained significantly associated with morbidity (odds ratio [OR] = 1.11). Ventral hernia repair (OR = 2.9), dependent functional status (OR = 2.3), alcohol use (OR = 2.3), emergent operation (OR = 2.0) white blood count (OR = 1.1), and age (OR = 1.02) were also significantly associated with morbidity (P < 0.05).Conclusions
Before hernia repair, the MELD score can be used to risk-stratify patients with nonmalignant ascites not only for mortality but also morbidity. Morbidity rates increase rapidly with MELD above 15, but other factors should additionally be accounted for when counseling patients on their perioperative risk. 相似文献13.

Background
Finding the optimal approach to repair an inguinal hernia is controversial. Therefore, for the scientific evaluation of the total extraperitoneal (TEP) and Lichtenstein mesh techniques for the repair of inguinal hernia, meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials are necessary.Methods
A complete literature search was conducted in the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register Databases, Pubmed, Embase, International Scientific Institute databases, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database in various languages.Results
Randomized controlled trials (13), including 3279 patients, were retrieved from the electronic databases. The Lichtenstein group was associated with a shorter operating time; however, results show that TEP repair enabled patients a shorter time to return to work, less chronic pain compared with Lichtenstein operation. There was no significant difference in seromas, wound infections, or neuralgia. There are no statistically significant difference in terms of hernia recurrence when the follow-up time is ≤3 y. When follow-up time is >3 y, TEP repair shows a higher recurrence rate compared with Lichtenstein repairs.Conclusions
There was insufficient evidence to determine the greater effectiveness between TEP and Lichtenstein mesh techniques. In future research, it is necessary for subgroup analyses of unilateral primary hernias, recurrent hernias, and simultaneous bilateral repair to be conducted to define the indications for the TEP approach. 相似文献14.

Background
Thyroid and parathyroid procedures historically have been viewed as inpatient procedures. Because of the advancements in surgical techniques, these procedures were transferred from the inpatient operating room (OR) to the outpatient OR at a single academic institution approximately 7 y ago. The goal of this study was to determine whether this change has decreased turnover times and maximized OR utilization.Methods
We performed a retrospective review of 707 patients undergoing thyroid (34%) and parathyroid (66%) procedures by a single surgeon at our academic institution between 2005 and 2008. Inpatient and outpatient groups were compared using Student t-test, chi-square test, or the Kruskal–Wallis test where appropriate. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine how patient and hospital factors influenced turnover times.Results
Turnover times were significantly lower in the outpatient OR (mean 18 ± 0.7 min) when compared with the inpatient OR (mean 36 ± 1.4 min) (P < 0.001). When compared by type of procedure, all turnover times remained significantly lower in the outpatient OR. Patients in both ORs were similar in age, gender, and comorbidities. However, inpatients had a higher mean American Society of Anesthesiologists score (2.30 versus 2.13, P < 0.001) and were more likely to have an operative indication of cancer (23.1% versus 9.2%, P < 0.001). Using multiple regression, the inpatient OR remained highly significantly associated with higher turnover times when controlling for these small differences (P < 0.001).Conclusions
Endocrine procedures performed in the outpatient OR have significantly faster turnover times leading to cost savings and greater OR utilization for hospitals. 相似文献15.

BACKGROUND: Different medical and social conditions have been associated with primary and recurrent hernias. Possible predictors of recurrence after elective umbilical hernia repair have not been defined clearly. The aim of this study was to determine factors that predict recurrence in patients after elective repair of umbilical hernias. METHODS: A 6-year retrospective review of patients with elective umbilical hernia repair at the Dallas VA Medical Center was performed. Clinical and pathologic data were evaluated by univariate analysis to identify predictive factors for recurrence. RESULTS: A total of 244 patients underwent elective hernia repair within the study period (male, 96%; mean age, 56 y; Caucasian, 74%; African American, 14%; Hispanic, 8%). Because 15 patients were not compliant with follow-up requirements, 229 were eligible for the study. Ninety-seven underwent suture repair (42.4%) and 132 underwent mesh repair (57.3%). Eleven recurrences were identified (4.8%): 7 in the suture repair group (7.7%) and 4 in the mesh repair group (3%). Univariate analysis showed that patients likely to develop recurrences were as follows: African American (15.6% vs. 3.5%; P = .017), type II diabetics (14.2% vs. 2.6%; P = .002), patients with hyperlipidemia (9.2% vs. 2.6%; P = .028), and human immunodeficiency virus-positive patients (66.6% vs. 3.9%; P = .000). CONCLUSIONS: Smoking, obesity, size of hernia, type of repair, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease do not seem to predict recurrence of hernias in our VA population. African Americans, patients with type II diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and positive for human immunodeficiency virus, may have a higher risk for recurrence after elective umbilical hernia repair. 相似文献

Introduction
Totally extra-peritoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair allows identification and repair of incidental non-inguinal groin hernias. We assessed the prevalence of incidental hernias during TEP inguinal hernia repair and identified the risk factors for incidental hernias.Materials and Methods
Consecutive patients undergoing TEP repair from May 2005 to November 2012 were the study cohort. Inspection for ipsilateral femoral, obturator and rarer varieties of hernia was undertaken during TEP repair. Patient characteristics and operative findings were recorded on a prospectively collected database.Results
A total of 1,532 TEP repairs were undertaken in 1,196 patients. Ninety-three patients were excluded due to incomplete data, leaving 1,103 patients and 1,404 hernias for analyses (1,380 male; 802 unilateral and 301 bilateral repairs; median age, 59 years). Among the 37 incidental hernias identified (2.6% of cases), the most common type of incidental hernia was femoral (n=32, 2.3%) followed by obturator (n=2, 0.1%). Increasing age was associated with an increased risk of incidental hernia, with a significant linear trend (p<0.01). The risk for patients >60 years of age was 4.0% vs 1.4% for those aged <60 years (p<0.01). Incidental hernias were found in 29.2% of females vs 2.2% of males, (p<0.0001). Risk of incidental hernia in those with a recurrent inguinal hernia was 3.0% vs 2.6% for primary repair (p=0.79).Conclusions
Incidental hernias during TEP inguinal hernia repair were found in 2.6% of cases and, though infrequent, could cause complications if left untreated. The risk of incidental hernia increased with age and was significantly higher in patients aged >60 years and in females. 相似文献17.

Background
Repair for a small (≤2 cm) umbilical and epigastric hernia is a minor surgical procedure. The most common surgical repair techniques are a sutured repair or a repair with mesh reinforcement. However, the optimal repair technique with regard to risk of reoperation for recurrence is not well documented. The aim of the present study was in a nationwide setup to investigate the reoperation rate for recurrence after small open umbilical and epigastric hernia repairs using either sutured or mesh repair.Materials and methods
This was a prospective cohort study based on intraoperative registrations from the Danish Ventral Hernia Database (DVHD) of patients undergoing elective open mesh and sutured repair for small (≤2 cm) umbilical and epigastric hernias. Patients were included during a 4-year study period. A complete follow-up was obtained by combining intraoperative data from the DVHD with data from the Danish National Patient Register. The cumulative reoperation rates were obtained using cumulative incidence plot and compared with the log rank test.Results and conclusions
In total, 4,786 small (≤2 cm) elective open umbilical and epigastric hernia repairs were included. Age was median 48 years (range 18–95 years). Follow-up was 21 months (range 0–47 months). The cumulated reoperation rates for recurrence were 2.2 % for mesh reinforcement and 5.6 % for sutured repair (P = 0.001). The overall cumulated reoperation rate for sutured and mesh repairs was 4.8 %. In conclusion, reoperation rate for recurrence for small umbilical and epigastric hernias was significantly lower after mesh repair compared with sutured repair. Mesh reinforcement should be routine in even small umbilical or epigastric hernias to lower the risk of reoperation for recurrence avoid recurrence. 相似文献18.

Background
Endoscopic fundoplication requires accurate evaluation of the gastroesophageal junction (GJ) to determine if hiatal hernia repair is necessary before fundoplication. We compared the endoscopic and laparoscopic evaluations of the GJ.Methods
A total of 53 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease underwent a laparoscopic repair of a hiatal defect before endoscopic fundoplication. The video of the preoperative endoscopic evaluation was compared with the laparoscopic video (n = 44). Nine patients were excluded because both endoscopic and laparoscopic videos were not available. A 2-tailed paired t test was used to assess the difference between the 2 study groups.Results
The greatest transverse dimension of the hiatus assessed endoscopically was 3.30 cm ± 1.00 vs 3.88 cm ± 1.03 assessed laparoscopically, P < .001. In 22.8%, the average endoscopic Hill grade was lower than the estimated Hill grade when viewed laparoscopically. In 11.1% (range, 6% to 15%) of cases, the endoscopic view indicated a hiatal hernia repair was unnecessary when the matching laparoscopic view indicated hiatal repair would be needed.Conclusions
Endoscopic evaluation of the GJ may underestimate the radial size of the hiatal defect. 相似文献19.

Background
Despite many advantages of original Kugel hernia repair over other procedures, there exist certain disadvantages of technical difficulty, long learning curve, and high early recurrence. The aim of this study was to explore the outcomes of long-term follow-up using anterior approach preperitoneal hernia repair with the Kugel patch and determine its safety and efficacy.Methods
Five hundred eighty-one inguinal hernias were performed in 560 patients, using anterior approach preperitoneal repair. Patients' age and sex, type of hernias, operative time, hospital stay, complications, and recurrence were evaluated.Results
We included 581 hernias, with 354 on right side, 162 on left side, and 65 bilateral sides. All hernias were primary. There were 443 indirect hernias, 115 direct hernias, and 23 femoral hernias. Mean operative time was 50 minutes; local anesthesia was applied in 530 cases (91.2%). Postoperative complications affected 50 patients (8.9%). The patients were discharged from 4 to 8 days (with average of 6 days). The averaged follow-up time was 70 months (12 to 120 months). There were 3 recurrences in the period (.5%).Conclusions
The results of long-term follow-up with this procedure are safe and effective, easy to learn. We believe that this procedure should be adopted as an alternative method for Chinese patients with inguinal hernias. 相似文献20.

Background : The aim of that study is to assess the surgical outcomes after laparoscopic repair of primary ventral hernias (PVH).Methods : The series consisted of 118 consecutive patients presenting with PVH (13 epigastric and 105 umbilical hernias) operated between 2001 and 2010 by laparoscopy. Surgical repair consisted in intraperitoneal placement of a Parietex® composite mesh centred on the defect with a minimum overlapping of 3 cm. The mesh was secured to the abdominal wall with a double crown of helical tacks alone or by an association of transfascial sutures and tacks. Patients’ data were recorded prospectively. All patients were checked during office visit one month and one year after surgery and thereafter periodically evaluated by phone call.Results : There were 32 women and 86 men with a mean age of 53 ± 12 years and a body mass index (BMI) of 32 ± 5. The median width of the defect was 2 cm (range: 1–6 cm). There was no conversion to open surgery. The mean operative time was 44 ± 18 min. and the hospital stay 2 ± 1 days. We noted 7 (6%) postoperative complications: 6 seromas and 1 hypodermitis. One month after surgery, no umbilical skin necrosis was observed and 102 patients (84%) considered the cosmetic result as excellent. With a mean follow-up of 66 ± 37 months, no complication related to the use of the mesh was recorded and the recurrence rate was 3% (4/118). Predictive factors of recurrence were: BMI > 35 (14% (4/29), p < 0.001), mesh overlapping < 5 cm (20% (3/15), p < 0.002) and mesh fixation by tacks alone (8% (4/48), p < 0.05).Conclusion : Laparoscopic PVH repair is associated with very low morbidity, excellent cosmetic result and a recurrence rate of 3%. Improvement in surgical repair technique with systematic use of transfascial sutures and mesh overlapping > 5 cm should decrease the recurrence rate especially in obese patients. 相似文献
