Development of an original method for the repair of paracolostomy hernias

Abstract

The proposed surgical procedure was studied on six unfixed male human cadavers. The removal of the end colostomy and paracolostomy hernia with subsequent intra-abdominal implantation of a previously prepared hernioprosthesis from the xenopericardium were modeled on the corpses. The use of the proposed method for the repair of paracolostomy hernias, including the use of a xenopericardial plate as an endoprosthesis according to an original technique, has shown its consistency and prospects for use on clinical material. Further studies associated with the use of the proposed technique of paracolostomy hernia repair in clinical practice seem promising. Key words: Colostomy, paracolostomy hernia, implantation, hernioprosthesis, xenopericardium.
