A parastomal hernia is a common complication following stoma surgery. Due to the large number of hernial relapses and other complications, such as infections, adhesion to the intestines, or the formation of adhesions, the treatment of hernias is still a surgical challenge. The current standard for the preventive and causal treatment of parastomal hernias is to perform a procedure with the use of a mesh implant. Researchers are currently focusing on the analysis of many relevant options, including the type of mesh (synthetic, composite, or biological), the available surgical techniques (Sugarbaker’s, “keyhole”, or “sandwich”), the surgical approach used (open or laparoscopic), and the implant position (onlay, sublay, or intraperitoneal onlay mesh). Current surface modification methods and combinations of different materials are actively explored areas for the creation of biocompatible mesh implants with different properties on the visceral and parietal peritoneal side. It has been shown that placing the implant in the sublay and intraperitoneal onlay mesh positions and the use of a specially developed implant with a 3D structure are associated with a lower frequency of recurrences. It has been shown that the prophylactic use of a mesh during stoma formation significantly reduces the incidence of parastomal hernias and is becoming a standard method in medical practice.

Objective We investigated the validity of our intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) Plus technique with barbed sutures. Background Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair has become a proven method for treating abdominal incisional hernias in recent years. There have been a few reports on the utility of IPOM Plus, which is IPOM + celiorrhaphy, although this method has not been widely discussed. We adopted the IPOM Plus technique with barbed sutures at our hospital and investigated the validity of this technique. Methods We included 7 patients who underwent IPOM Plus repair from 2015 to 2017 at our hospital. We excluded patients with a hernia hilum <2 cm or ≥10 cm, age < 20 years old, PS3 or more, and uncontrolled comorbidity. The hernial orifice was closed laparoscopically using barbed sutures and subsequently secured by tacking on an onlay mesh. Results The median hernial orifice size of the 7 patients was 45 mm (25 to 55 mm). Hernia onset occurred after laparotomy in all cases. In one case, an abdominal incisional hernia recurred after IPOM used to treat the condition 15 years earlier. The mean duration of surgery was 80.5 minutes (53 to 126 minutes), and the median pain scale score was 3 points (0 to 3 points), indicating little pain. None of the patients reported persistent postoperative pain. The mean duration of the postoperative hospital stay was a median of 3.5 days (2 to 5 days). Both short- and long-term outcomes indicated that no recurrence or complications, such as bulging or seroma, occurred. Conclusions IPOM Plus with intracavitary abdominal suturing using barbed suture for abdominal scar hernia repair may be a valid surgical procedure.

Background: Ventral hernias are common problem in surgical practice. Repair of hernia by a prosthetic mesh is a well recognized procedure. But whether the procedure is to be done by open or laparoscopic technique is still a topic of discussion. Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) hernioplasty is a newer technique in managing ventral hernia in our country. We are evaluating the usefulness of this procedure as routine operation for ventral hernias.Methods: All patients attending at Bangladesh Institute of Research & Rehabilitation of Diabetes, Endocrine and Metabolic disorders (BIRDEM) outpatient department (OPD) with ventral hernia were approached and counseled for laparoscopic IPOM, but only those who agreed were included in this study. Fifty consecutive patients underwent IPOM by a single surgeon. Preoperative evaluation was done rationally and surgery performed by standard laparoscopic method. Age, sex, diabetes status and additional procedures done were evaluated. Post- operative follow up period was from 3 months to 75 months and any complication or recurrence were noted.Results: We are reporting 50 cases of laparoscopic IPOM, over a time period of 78 months (April 2010- September 2016). Eleven cases were male, 39 female (M: F=1:3.5). 35 (70%) cases were diabetic, 15 (30%) were non-diabetic. Mean age of the patients were 47.7yrs (male 47.7+9.5 yrs, female 47.7- 2.6 yrs, diabetic patients 47.7+ 2.5yrs, non-diabetic patients 47.7-5.9yrs). Indication for IPOM was paraumbilical hernia 29 cases (58%), incisional hernia 14 cases(28%), multiple incisional hernia 2 cases ( 2 large defect in one case, 5 defects of varying size in another patient), umbilical port hernia 2 cases, paraumbilical along with incisional hernia 1 case, epigastric hernia 1 case, lumber hernia 1 case. In 48 cases (96%) polypropylene mesh and only in 2 cases (4%) dual mesh were used. In addition to IPOM procedure, in same sitting laparoscopic cholecystectomy was done in 8 cases, Dilatation & Curettage in 1 case and adhesiolysis in 7 cases. None of the case required conversion to open, neither was there any intra-operative complication. In one case there was recurrence . In another case there was false recurrence due to development of ascites. Four patients developed seroma which were managed conservatively.Conclusion: Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) hernioplasty has proved to be an effective surgical procedure for ventral hernia repair. It provides much benefits with low complications and conversion in experienced hands.Birdem Med J 2017; 7(2): 106-109
