Abstract Aim The aim of this systematic review was to report the risk of parastomal and incisional hernias after emergency surgery for Hinchey III–IV diverticulitis. Material and Methods The Cochrane Library, Embase, PubMed (MEDLINE), Web of Science and Scopus databases were systematically searched. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies comparing HP with other surgical treatment options for perforated diverticulitis classified as purulent or faecal (Hinchey III–IV) were considered for inclusion. Exclusion criteria were case series and reports, letters, editorials, reviews and conference abstracts. The primary endpoint was parastomal hernia incidence. The secondary endpoint was incisional hernia incidence. Seven studies (six randomized controlled trials and one retrospective cohort) with a total of 831 patients were eligible for inclusion. Results The parastomal hernia incidence was 15.2–46.0% for Hartmann procedure, 0–85.2% for primary anastomosis, 4.3% for resection and 1.6 % for laparoscopic lavage. The incisional hernia incidences were 7.8–38.1% for Hartmann procedure, 4.5–27.2% for primary anastomosis, 3.2–25.5% for primary resection, 2.7–11.1% for laparoscopic lavage and 16.1–45.8% for secondary resection. Due to heterogeneity of follow-up methods, follow-up time and lack of both parastomal and incisional hernia as outcome, no meta-analysis was conducted. Conclusions The hernia incidences reported after surgical treatment for complicated diverticulitis may be biased and underestimated. For future RCTs, researchers are encouraged to pay attention to hernia diagnosis, symptoms and prevention.

Gluteus Medius Muscle

Abstract Introduction Globally, low back pain (LBP) is one of the greatest causes of disability. In people with LBP, dysfunction of muscles such as the gluteus medius have been demonstrated to increase spinal loading and reduce spinal stability. Differences in gluteus medius function have been reported in those with LBP compared to those without, although this has only been reported in individual studies. The aim of this systematic review was to determine if adults with a history, or current LBP, demonstrate differences in measures of gluteus medius function when compared to adults without LBP. Methods MEDLINE, EMBASE, AMED, PsycINFO, PubMED, Pro Quest Database, CINAHL and SPORTDiscus were searched from inception until December 2018 for published journal articles and conference abstracts. No language restrictions were applied. Only case-control studies with participants 18 years and over were included. Participants could have had any type and duration of LBP. Studies could have assessed gluteus medius function with any quantifiable clinical assessment or measurement tool, with the participant non-weight bearing or weight bearing, and during static or dynamic activity. Quality appraisal and data extraction were independently performed by two authors. Results The 24 included articles involved 1088 participants with LBP and 998 without LBP. The gluteus medius muscle in participants with LBP tended to demonstrate reduced strength and more trigger points compared to the gluteus medius muscle of those without LBP. The level of activity, fatigability, time to activate, time to peak activation, cross sectional area, and muscle thickness showed unclear results. Meta-analysis was not performed due to the heterogeneity of included studies. Conclusion Clinically, the findings from this systematic review should be considered when assessing and managing patients with LBP. Future studies that clearly define the type and duration of LBP, and prospectively assess gluteus medius muscle function in those with and without LBP are needed. Trial registration PROSPERO (CRD42017076773).

Background and Aims: Appendectomy is a common surgical procedure, but no overview of the long-term consequences exists. Our aim was to systematically review the long-term complications of appendectomy for acute appendicitis. Materials and Methods: This systematic review was reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42017064662). The databases PubMed and EMBASE were searched for original reports on appendectomy with n ≥ 500 and follow-up >30 days. The surgical outcomes were ileus and incisional hernia; other outcomes were inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, fertility, and mortality. Results: We included 37 studies. The pooled estimate of the ileus prevalence was 1.0% over a follow-up period of 4.6 (range, 0.5–15) years. Regarding incisional hernia, we found a pooled estimate of 0.7% prevalence within a follow-up period of 6.5 (range, 1.9–10) years. Ulcerative colitis had a pooled estimate of 0.15% prevalence in the appendectomy group and 0.19% in controls. The opposite pattern was found regarding Crohn’s disease with a pooled estimate of 0.20% prevalence in the appendectomy group and 0.12% in controls. No clear pattern was found regarding most of the examined cancers in appendectomy groups compared with background populations. Pregnancy rates increased after appendicitis compared with controls in most studies. Mortality was low after appendectomy. Conclusion: Appendectomy had a low prevalence of long-term surgical complications. We did not find any significant other long-term complications, though the prevalence of Crohn’s disease was higher and the prevalence of ulcerative colitis was lower after appendectomy than in controls. Appendectomy did not impair fertility.
