It is essential to prevent parastomal hernia in order to improve patients' quality of life. Prophylactic mesh and perioperative care might prevent parastomal hernias.

To reduce the incidence of recurrence of parastomal hernia, placement of mesh by the laparoscopic Sugarbaker technique was an effective surgical approach. How to prevent and repair parastomal hernia and cure parastomal hernia repair still needs further high-quality research to provide evidence.
