[HYBRID REPAIR OF PARASTOMAL HERNIA WITH DynaMesh-IPST]

To investigate the technique and early results of hybrid repair of parastomal hernia with the DynaMesh-IPST.

A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 28 patients who underwent DynaMesh-IPST hybrid repair of parastomal hernia between October 2013 and June 2016. There were 18 males and 10 females, aged 49-84 years (mean, 71 years). The disease duration of parastomal hernia was 6-60 months (mean, 27.6 months). The body mass index (BMI) was 17-35 (mean, 25.6); there were 15 obese patients (BMI>26).

The operation was completed smoothly in all patients. The mean stoma diameter was 6 cm (range, 4-9 cm). The mean operation time was 142 minutes (range, 110-190 minutes). The mean hospital stay was 9 days (range, 7-12 days). Seroma was found in 2 patients, and was cured by needle aspiration and pressure bandage. All 28 cases were followed up 1-33 months (mean, 19 months). No recurrence, infection, intestinal fistula, and stoma-related problems were found. The appearance of abdominal wall was symmetrical.

DynaMesh-IPST hybrid repair is a safe and feasible method for parastomal hernia, and the short-term operative result is satisfactory.
