Abstract

Background: Incisional hernias are a frequent complication after abdominal surgery, affecting a significant number of patients worldwide. When complicated by bowel obstruction, these hernias require urgent surgical intervention, which can lead to increased perioperative risks and prolonged recovery. This study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes and quality of life between open and laparoscopic surgery for incisional hernias complicated by bowel obstruction. Methods: AA 6-year prospective cohort study was conducted between January 2019 and 2024. A total of 117 patients who presented with incisional hernias complicated by bowel obstruction were included. Patients were divided into two groups: open surgery (n=91) and laparoscopic surgery (n=26). Pain and quality of life were assessed using the Visual Analog Scale and the questionnaire of the European Hernia Society. Results: Complication rates were significantly lower in the laparoscopic group (23.1% vs. 38.5%), although no significant differences were found in Clavien-Dindo complication grades. Patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery reported significantly lower postoperative pain scores on day 1 and discharge, and they showed superior quality of life scores, especially regarding pain during physical activity and cosmetic concerns, as measured by the EuraHS-QoL questionnaire. Conclusions: Laparoscopic surgery for incisional hernias complicated by bowel obstruction results in fewer complications, reduced postoperative pain, and improved quality of life compared to open surgery.

手术入路对梗阻性切口疝术后恢复及生活质量的影响。
背景:切口疝是腹部手术后常见的并发症,影响了世界范围内相当数量的患者。当合并肠梗阻时,这些疝气需要紧急手术干预,这可能导致围手术期风险增加和恢复时间延长。本研究旨在评估和比较开放手术和腹腔镜手术治疗切口疝合并肠梗阻的临床结果和生活质量。方法:于2019年1月至2024年1月进行为期6年的AA前瞻性队列研究。共纳入117例切口疝合并肠梗阻患者。患者分为两组:开放手术(n=91)和腹腔镜手术(n=26)。采用视觉模拟量表和欧洲疝学会问卷对疼痛和生活质量进行评估。结果:腹腔镜组并发症发生率明显低于腹腔镜组(23.1% vs. 38.5%),但Clavien-Dindo并发症分级无显著差异。接受腹腔镜手术的患者在第1天和出院时报告的术后疼痛评分明显较低,并且他们表现出更高的生活质量评分,特别是在体力活动和美容问题期间的疼痛,通过EuraHS-QoL问卷测量。结论:与开放手术相比,腹腔镜手术治疗切口疝合并肠梗阻并发症少,术后疼痛减轻,生活质量提高。
