BACKGROUND: Clinical trials have shown reduced incisional hernia rates 1 year after elective median laparotomy closure using a short-stitch technique. With hernia development continuing beyond the first postoperative year, we aimed to compare incisional hernias 3 years after midline closure using short or long stitches in patients from the ESTOIH trial. METHODS: The ESTOIH trial was a prospective, multicenter, parallel-group, double-blind, randomized-controlled study of primary elective midline closure...

PURPOSE: Laparoscopic groin hernia repair has evolved and gained popularity and laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) procedure provides an opportunity to evaluate the peritoneal cavity and both inguinal areas without the need for additional dissection. There is still a paucity of evidence to support TAPP repair in the emergency setting. In this systematic review, we aim to evaluate the feasibility and safety of TAPP repair for incarcerated and strangulated groin hernias. METHODS: PRISMA guidelines were followed for literature search and established inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied...

INTRODUCTION: Ventral hernia repairs, particularly laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR), have become common procedures among general surgeons worldwide. Despite the benefits of LVHR, acute postoperative pain remains a significant concern. Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks have been employed to alleviate postoperative pain in various laparoscopic procedures. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of laparoscopic-guided TAP block in laparoscopic IPOM plus and its impact on postoperative pain and analgesic requirements...

PURPOSE: Metachronous contralateral inguinal hernia (MCIH) may occur after unilateral inguinal hernia (IH) repair, potentially as a result of occult IH (OIH). Contralateral OIH can be checked for during laparoscopic transabdominal hernioplasty for the treatment of unilateral IH. This study aims to assess the efficacy of laparoscopic iliopubic tract repair (IPTR) in treating contralateral OIH to reduce MCIH. METHODS: The medical charts of 3165 patients aged > 18 years who underwent laparoscopic transabdominal hernioplasty for unilateral IH from January 2013 to December 2021 were retrospectively reviewed...

PURPOSE/BACKGROUND: Despite the growing use of bioabsorbable mesh in ventral hernia repairs (VHR), the evidence of its impact on patient outcomes remains limited. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety profile of poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB) mesh for ventral hernia repair through a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS: A literature search of five databases (PubMed, Embase, Ovid, Medline, and Google Scholar) produced a list of publications that analyzed the use of P4HB mesh in ventral hernia repair in both clean and contaminated cases...

PURPOSE: International guidelines exist for surgical treatment of either ventral or inguinal hernias repair (VHR; IHR). However, approach for managing both of them remains unestablished and is further complicated by newly developed surgical techniques and modalities (namely, robotic). This highlights the need for a tailored, algorithmic strategy to streamline surgical management. METHODS: An algorithm was developed by the directors of the NYU Langone Abdominal Core Health program of which four treatment groups were described: Group 1: open VHR and either laparoscopic or robotic IHR; Group 2: robotic transabdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP) approach for both VHR and IHR; Group 3: robotic retro-muscular VHR and IHR; and Group 4: open repair for both...

PURPOSE: The Q1.6 Inguinal Hernia application continuously measures patient-reported outcomes (PROs) by sampling experiences through brief, digital and condition-specific questions, utilising micro-moments. This can overcome the limitations of current paper questionnaires and give real-time insight into patient recovery. This exploratory study compares data from the application with retrospective data from electronic medical records (EMRs) to provide information on its accuracy in detecting postoperative complications after inguinal hernia repair...

PURPOSE: The radiographic rectus width to hernia width ratio (RDR) has been shown to predict ability to close fascial defect without additional myofascial release in open Rives-Stoppa abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR), but it has not been studied in robotic AWR. We aimed to examine various CT measurements to determine their usability in predicting the need for transversus abdominis release (TAR) in robotic AWR. METHODS: We performed a single-center retrospective review of 137 patients with midline ventral hernias over a 5-year period who underwent elective robotic retrorectus AWR...

BACKGROUND: Chronic pain remains prevalent after open inguinal hernia repair and nerve-handling strategies are debated. Some guidelines suggest sparing nerves that are encountered; however, the nerve identification rates are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the nerve identification rates in a register-based nationwide cohort. METHODS: This study was reported according to the RECORD guideline and used prospective, routinely collected data from the Danish Hernia Database, which was linked with the National Patient Registry...

PURPOSE: Management of scrotal hernias presents as a common challenge, with operative interventions to address these hernias associated with higher rates of morbidity compared to those of less-complex pathology. Surgeons have advocated for the use of techniques such as primary abandonment of the distal sac as a potential means to reduce complications for operative intervention, with preliminary findings demonstrating feasibility. We sought to assess outcomes related to primary sac abandonment among patients undergoing minimally invasive (MIS) repair of scrotal hernias...

INTRODUCTION: The debate continues as to whether laparoscopic total Nissen (LNF) versus partial posterior Toupet fundoplication (LTF) leads to better outcomes in the surgical treatment of axial hiatal hernia with gastroesophageal reflux disease. In the most recent meta-analysis including 13 RCTs with 1564 patients, no significant difference was found between the two procedures in terms of perioperative complications and recurrent reflux rates. Further comparative analyses are urgently needed...

BACKGROUND: Inguinal hernia is a relatively common condition. Most patients with inguinal hernia require surgery. At present, mesh repair is one of the most effective methods to treat inguinal hernia, but insertion of the mesh can cause inflammation. Dexamethasone (DEX) can treat inflammation, but the mechanism by which DEX alleviates inflammation caused by inguinal hernia mesh placement remains unclear. METHOD: We randomly divided rats into groups: negative control (NC), inguinal hernia (IH), polypropylene mesh (PM), DEX treatment, and miR-155 treatment groups...
