Prosthetic mesh used for inguinal and ventral hernia repair: normal appearance and complications in ultrasound and CT.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of prosthetic mesh has now become accepted practice in the treatment of patients with both inguinal and ventral hernias. This pictorial review illustrates the various radiological appearances of these meshes and also demonstrates the post-operative complications associated with their implantation.

Purpose: Mesh technique is the standard for inguinal hernia repair because of less recurrence, but it is inferior or equal to sutured technique in case of other post-operative complications such as chronic pain. This clinical trial set out to compare these two techniques. Materials and Methods: A total number of 322 cases of unilateral inguinal hernia in participants older than 18 yea...
متن کاملMultidetector CT of expected findings and early postoperative complications after current techniques for ventral hernia repair
UNLABELLED Current techniques for ventral hernia repair (VHR) rely on prosthetic mesh implantation and are increasingly performed laparoscopically. Potentially serious iatrogenic complications may occur following VHR, though these are rare compared to the vast number of procedures performed each year. This paper provides an overview of contemporary open and laparoscopic surgical techniques and ...
متن کاملMultidetector CT of expected findings and complications after contemporary inguinal hernia repair surgery.
Inguinal hernia repair (IHR) with prosthetic mesh implantation is the most common procedure in general surgery, and may be performed using either an open or laparoscopic approach. This paper provides an overview of contemporary tension-free IHR techniques and materials, and illustrates the expected postoperative imaging findings and iatrogenic injuries. Emphasis is placed on multidetector CT, w...

Background: The inguinal hernia is a common disorder in general surgery. Different methods have been described for repair of these hernias. In modern methods, synthetic mesh is used to cover the wall defect and the most known method is Lichtenstein surgical repair. The laparoscopic totally extra peritoneal procedure (TEP) is a newer technique of repairing hernia. The aim of this study is to co...
