The INCH-Trial: a multicentre randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy of conventional open surgery and laparoscopic surgery for incisional hernia repair
BACKGROUND Annually approximately 100.000 patients undergo a laparotomy in the Netherlands. About 15,000 of these patients will develop an incisional hernia. Both open and laparoscopic surgical repair have been proven to be safe. However, the most effective treatment of incisional hernias remains unclear. This study, the 'INCH-trial', comparing cost-effectiveness of open and laparoscopic incisi...

متن کاملUse of biologic mesh at ostomy takedown to prevent incisional hernia: A case series
INTRODUCTION Incisional hernias are a relatively common occurrence after ostomy takedown with a incidence of 30-35%. The use of biologic mesh offers a means to bolster the stoma incision site with a lower risk of infection than synthetic mesh. METHODS This study represents a retrospective chart review of six patients who underwent stoma takedown and had biologic mesh placed in the retrorectus...
متن کاملLaparoscopic repair of ventral incisional hernia.
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic repair of ventral incisional hernias was first reported in 1993. Since then, there have been sporadic case reports and small series published about this procedure, but it has not been widely adopted. Newer types of composite prosthetic mesh may reduce the potential problem of bowel adhesion. METHODS Thirty cases of laparoscopic ventral incisional hernia repairs (carrie...
متن کاملA retrospective study on mesh repair alone vs. mesh repair plus pedicle flap for large incisional hernias.
OBJECTIVE Our experience with the treatment of large incisional hernias (IH) was reviewed comparing mesh repair alone vs. mesh repair plus pedicle flaps. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed on patients treated between 2001 and 2005 that underwent component separation technique (CST) repair with polypropylene mesh alone or with polypropylene mesh and local "pedicle" derma...
