Objective:
To summarize the surgical technique and the effectiveness of CK Parastomal patch in laparoscopic repair of parastomal hernia.
Methods:
The clinical data were retrospectively analysed from 24 patients who received laparoscopic repair of parastomal hernia using CK Parastomal patch between June 2006 and March 2010. There were 15 males and 9 females with a median age of 55 years (range, 47-80 years). Among them, 19 patients were with colon parastomal hernia in the left lower quadrant and 5 patients with ileum parastomal hernia in the right lower quadrant. The parastomal hernia duration was 1 to 4 years (mean, 2.4 years). The maximal diameter of the hernia ring was 3 to 7 cm (mean, 5.2 cm). All patients did not receive hernia repair.
Results:
Laparoscopic repair of parastomal hernia was successfully performed in 18 cases, and open repair was used in 6 cases because of extensive adhesion. The average operating time was 121 minutes (range, 78 to 178 minutes). All wounds healed by first intention. Wound seroma occurred in 8 cases at 3 to 7 days after operation and disappeared by aspiration. Eleven patients complained of pain in the operative area within 1 month after operation and it disappeared without intervention. All patients were followed up 6 to 39 months (mean, 27 months). One recurrence occurred at 3 months after operation, and no recurrence occurred in the other patients.
Conclusion:
Laparoscopic repair of parastomal hernia using CK Parastomal patch is a safe and feasible procedure with a satisfactory short-term effectiveness, but the long-term effectiveness should be further observed.
