Umbilical hernia in children

Medicinski pregled, 2003
Introduction Umbilical hernia is a common condition in the pediatric population. Embryology Umbilical hernia is a consequence of incomplete closure or weakness at the umbilical ring, where protrusion of intraabdominal contents may occur. Anatomy Fascia posterior to the canal is thinner creating an area of weakness. Congenital or direct hernia occurs in

Mesh versus suture in elective repair of umbilical hernia: systematic review and meta‐analysis

BJS Open, 2020
Mesh repair of umbilical hernia has been associated with a reduced recurrence rate compared with suture closure, but potentially at the expense of increased postoperative complications and chronic pain.

Emergency umbilical hernia management: scoping review

BJS Open
Background Umbilical hernias, while frequently asymptomatic, may become acutely symptomatic, strangulated or obstructed, and require emergency treatment. Robust evidence is required for high-quality care in this field.

Conservative treatment versus elective repair of umbilical hernia in patients with liver cirrhosis and ascites: results of a randomized controlled trial (CRUCIAL trial)

Langenbeck's archives of surgery (Print), 2020
Purpose To establish optimal management of patients with an umbilical hernia complicated by liver cirrhosis and ascites. Methods Patients with an umbilical hernia and liver cirrhosis and ascites were randomly assigned to receive either elective repair or

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Stratification of surgical site infection by operative factors and comparison of infection rates after hernia repair [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: The National Healthcare Safety Network does not risk adjust surgical site infection (SSI) rates after hernia repair by operative factors. We investigated whether operative factors are associated with risk of SSI after hernia repair.

LIPECTOMY AND UMBILICAL HERNIA [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1916
The fact that umbilical hernia is a dangerous abdominal condition, if allowed to exist without an attempt at relief, is sufficient reason for calling attention to this defect of anatomy. The radical treatment by the overlapping, or Mayo method, is so well known that it seems almost superfluous to mention it, but it is valuable enough to stand ...

Switching from robotic-assisted extended transabdominal preperitoneal (eTAPP) to totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) hernia repair for umbilical and epigastric hernias

Scientific Reports
Our study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of the robotic-assisted extended totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) repair compared to transabdominal preperitoneal (eTAPP) repair with a suprapubic trocar insertion to treat umbilical and epigastric ...

Trisomy 5p: Long Recognized, Rarely Published‐ Three New Cases and Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complete trisomy 5p is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 5. Current data suggest that complete trisomy 5p presents as a distinct clinical syndrome including but not limited to seizures, developmental delays, facial dysmorphisms, failure to thrive, and recurrent respiratory infections.

De Novo Heterozygous ZFX Frameshift Variant in a Female With an X‐Linked Neurodevelopmental Disorder

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germline ZFX variants are associated with an X‐linked neurodevelopmental disorder, with 14 males and 16 females reported to date. We describe a 20‐year‐old female with a heterozygous ZFX frameshift variant, p.(Met666Valfs*2), identified by genome sequencing, previously reported in an affected male.
