Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of laparoscopic mesh repair of parastomal hernia. Methods Laparoscopic mesh repair was performed in 7 patients with parasromal hernia from September 2004 to December 2005 in this hospital.Results Laparoscopic mesh herniorrhaphy was successfully performed in 6 patients, while a conversion to open herniorrhaphy was required in 1 patient because of extensive intraperitoneal adhesion. The operating time was 45~180 mi (mean, 109 min), and the hernial diameter was 4~6 cm (mean, 5.6 cm). Transient abdominal distention happened in 2 patients. Five patients complained of a pain in operative area within 3 weeks. Seroma occurred in 4 patients and was cured by needle aspiration and pressure bandaging for 2~ 4 times. No hematoma or surgery-related infection was seen. The length of postoperative hospital stay was 3~8 d (mean, 5.1 d). Postoperative follow-up for 2~15 months (mean, 8.3 months) revealed no recurrence. Conclusions Laparoscopic mesh repair of parastomal hernia is safe, effective, and feasible.
