Background The European and American guidelines recommend that symptomatic umbilical hernias (UHs) are repaired using an open approach with a preperitoneal flat mesh. However, the standard treatment procedure for large UH in patients with extreme obesity

Abstract Implants like meshes for the reinforcement of tissues implement the formation of a persistent inflammation with an ambient fibrotic reaction. In the inflammatory infiltrate several distinct cell types have been identified, but CD68+ macrophages are supposed to be most important.

Predictors for surgical site infection in patients undergoing therapeutic or prophylactic intra-abdominal onlay mesh (IPOM) implantation in clean and contaminated surgical fields [PDF]
BACKGROUND Prophylactic intra-abdominal onlay mesh (IPOM) implantation has been shown to reduce the rate of fascial dehiscence and incisional hernia. However, surgical site infection (SSI) in presence of an IPOM remains a concern.

Fifty patients were enrolled and randomized to laparoscopic hernia repair with conventional fascial closure or a peritoneal bridging approach. Follow‐up by CT at 12 months (primary endpoint) revealed no seroma in either group, but seroma was detected clinically in the early postoperative period after 1 month (4 of 25 versus 0 of 25 patients in fascial ...

The octapeptide long acting somatostatin analogue, SMS 201‐995 promotes intestinal fluid and electrolyte absorption and inhibits anion secretion. It is more potent than native somatostatin and does not exhibit tachyphylaxsis. SMS 201‐995 was used to treat two patients with severe diarrhea associated with Crohn’s disease after other treatments had ...
