Abstract
Purpose: To present updated outcomes after previously describing a novel technique for the robotic repair of parastomal hernias.
Methods: Patients who underwent parastomal hernia repair with a robotic Sugarbaker technique at a tertiary hernia center were identified from an institutional database. The approach involves mesh placement in the intraperitoneal or preperitoneal position after closure of the fascial defect. Baseline demographics, intra-operative variables, and post-operative outcomes were evaluated.
Results: Twenty-six patients were identified who underwent robotic Sugarbaker parastomal hernia repair with mesh. Median age was 61.5 (IQR 58.0-67.0) years, 17 (65%) were male, and median BMI was 29.5 (IQR 25.7-32.6) kg/m2. Stoma types included 11 (42%) colostomies, 8 (31%) ileostomies, and 7 (27%) urostomies. All but one case was elective (96%) and 2 (8%) were recurrent. Median operative time was 182.5 (IQR 149-209) min. Biologic mesh was used in 5 (19%) and synthetic mesh in 21 (81%) cases. Concurrent hernia repair was performed in 11 (42%) cases. Two (8%) patients were converted from a robotic to open procedure. Median length of stay was 4 (IQR 3-6) days. A total of 3 (11.5%) patients underwent reoperation related to obstruction at the stoma site. There were no additional 30-day readmissions, seromas requiring intervention, or wound complications. There were 4 (15%) total recurrences during a median follow up of 29.1 (IQR 10.0-55.8) months.
Conclusions: Robotic Sugarbaker parastomal hernia repair is an effective technique for minimally invasive repair of parastomal hernias. Care should be taken to prevent obstruction of the stoma related to fascial and peritoneal flap reconstruction or mesh placement, which is a significant risk of this technique.
期刊介绍:
Hernia was founded in 1997 by Jean P. Chevrel with the purpose of promoting clinical studies and basic research as they apply to groin hernias and the abdominal wall . Since that time, a true revolution in the field of hernia studies has transformed the field from a ”simple” disease to one that is very specialized. While the majority of surgeries for primary inguinal and abdominal wall hernia are performed in hospitals worldwide, complex situations such as multi recurrences, complications, abdominal wall reconstructions and others are being studied and treated in specialist centers. As a result, major institutions and societies are creating specific parameters and criteria to better address the complexities of hernia surgery.
Hernia is a journal written by surgeons who have made abdominal wall surgery their specific field of interest, but we will consider publishing content from any surgeon who wishes to improve the science of this field. The Journal aims to ensure that hernia surgery is safer and easier for surgeons as well as patients, and provides a forum to all surgeons in the exchange of new ideas, results, and important research that is the basis of professional activity.
