Abstract:
Abdominal hernia can only be cured by operations. However, it is still a challenge for surgeons to treat the parastomal hernia. Recently, mesh and laparoscopic technique are widely used in the treatment of parastomal hernias, and some progress have been made, but we have to face some problems, such as recurrence, unsatisfactory stomal function and poor outlooks. We applied our Lap-re-Do technique to repair the parastomal hernia not only closing and reinforcing the hernia ring by suturing and mesh, but also rebuild the stoma in situ.
