Selected OPS codes apply to all sectors, which, in combination with a specified ICD, result in a flat fee, regardless of whether the patient is managed as an outpatient or inpatient. This new form of billing has a huge impact on hospitals. The revenue situation is significantly worse than under the previous form of billing and requires adjustments at the locations. If these changes are not made, supply would be demonstrably deficient. Therefore, increased outsourcing to an outpatient setting is necessary. The advantages are the efficient use of staff and a structured selection of patients. Ideally, outpatient surgical units have an advantage here, but outpatient paths can also be created via separate areas in the central operating theatre. Using the example of inguinal hernia, over 50% of patients can be treated on an outpatient basis if selection is optimised. The disadvantage of this form of billing is the necessary financial reserve for innovations, training and the use of expensive operational aids. With the addition of incisional hernias to the hybrid catalogue in 2025, future care will become more cost-oriented.</p>","PeriodicalId":23956,"journal":{"name":"Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie","volume":" ","pages":"506-511"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142126851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If there is additionally a long history of hydradenitis suppurativa (HS) in the lower abdomen and groin area, complications of infection can appear in all patients. Differentiated pre-, peri- and postoperative therapy regime is then indicated.From 2010 to 2021, a total of 12 (66.6% women, 33.3% men) consecutive patients underwent conventional (Pittsburg rating scale [PRS]: Grade 2) or fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty (PRS: Grade 3) after massive weight loss. All patients simultaneously suffered long term HS in the lower abdomen and groin area (Hurley classification Grade 2: n = 10, Grade 3: n = 2). The prevalence in our study was 1.09%.Postoperative minor and major complications (follow-up 12 months) are determined and correlated with risk factors (e.g. age, method of weight loss, nicotine abuse…).Mean age was 45.2 years (± 10.3), mean BMI pre-operative 33.24 kg/m<sup>2</sup> (± 8.7), the mean decrease in BMI was 19.01 kg/m<sup>2</sup> (± 5.9) and the maximum BMI before weight loss 52.25 kg/m<sup>2</sup>.

Nevertheless, the proportion of inguinal hernias treated using MIS in children in this country is relatively low, at around 8% of all operations. The aim of this synopsis is to describe the different MIS techniques for inguinal hernia repair in children, including their respective advantages and disadvantages.This video compilation shows the spectrum of different techniques for laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in children. It includes the intracorporeal suturing technique, the incision of the peritoneum, extracorporeal percutaneous techniques, and the cauterisation of the open peritoneal vaginal process in girls.Although minimally invasive inguinal hernia repair in children is technically and scientifically established, it is not yet being widely used.
