Abstract

Purpose: Post-operative pain following intra peritoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair of ventral hernia is commonly attributed to mechanical fixation devices. Fibrin sealant is a novel technique of mesh fixation purported to cause less pain. The aim of this study was to compare postoperative pain in these two methods of mesh fixation.

Methods: This was a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Eighty patients with primary ventral hernia underwent laparoscopic IPOM repair using PROCEED™ mesh, which was fixed with either mechanical fixation device, SECURESTRAP™ (MF group) or fibrin sealant, TISSEEL™ (FS group). Primary end point was postoperative pain at rest and movement on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of 0-10. Operative time, recurrence, seroma and quality of life (QoL) were secondary outcomes. Patients were followed up for one year.

Results: There was no significant difference in pain score at 12 h, 24 h, 7 days, 1, 3 and 12 months between the groups, except pain on movement, which was significantly less in the FS group on the seventh day (median VAS 3 vs. 2, p = 0.01). Mean operative time was 8 min longer in the FS group (p = 0.001). Two patients in the FS and none in the MF group had recurrence at one year (p = 0.18). Seroma formation, postoperative QoL and patient satisfaction scores were similar in both groups.

Conclusions: Use of fibrin sealant for mesh fixation does not provide significant advantage over mechanical fixation in laparoscopic IPOM repair.

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.
