A New Method to Insert the DualMesh® Prosthesis for Laparoscopic Ventral Herniorrhaphy
نویسنده
چکیده
The introduction of the prosthetic biomaterial during the laparoscopic repair of incisional and ventral hernias can present a challenge. Presented herein is a simplified method to fold and unfold the DualMesh (W. L. Gore and Associates, Flagstaff, AZ) prosthesis during this operation.

Strategies to Minimize Adhesions to Intraperitoneally Placed Mesh in Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair
INTRODUCTION Adhesions to mesh/tacks in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair are often cited as reasons not to adopt its evidence-based superiority over conventional open methods. This pilot study assessed the occurrence of adhesions to full-sized Polypropylene and Gore-tex DualMesh Plus meshes and the possibility for adhesion prevention using fibrin sealant. METHODS Two 10-cm to 15-cm pieces ...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair Using a Two (5-mm) Port Technique
OBJECTIVE High recurrence rates have been documented after primary repair of incisional hernias. Laparoscopic ventral and incisional hernia repairs have been performed with very low rates of recurrence. We have modified the standard technique of laparoscopic repair in patients with small incisional and ventral hernias. The purpose of this study was to document the technique utilizing only two 5...
متن کاملPostoperative Seroma Deep to Mesh after Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair: Computed Tomography Appearance and Implications for Treatment
We report the development of a seroma deep to a mesh prosthesis used for laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR). Seroma formation anterior to mesh after LVHR is very common; however, the formation of a deep seroma has been rarely reported in the literature and the imaging appearance of a seroma posterior to mesh after LVHR has not been previously described. We present the imaging appearance ...
متن کاملComparison of Open and Laparoscopic Prosthetic Repair of Large Ventral Hernias
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Open ventral hernia repair is associated with significant morbidity and high recurrence rates. Recently, the laparoscopic approach has evolved as an attractive alternative. Our objective was to compare open with laparoscopic ventral hernia repairs. METHODS Fifty laparoscopic and 22 open ventral hernia repairs were included in the study. All patients underwent a tensi...
