Laparoscopic Paraesophageal Hernia Repair

Surgical Innovation, 2001
The term paraesophageal hernia is described as a herniation of the gastric fundus through the open hiatus into the thoracic cavity while the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) remains in its normal anatomic position. This is considered a rolling esophageal hernia (Type II), and it is the least commonly encountered hiatal hernia.

Laparoscopic Repair of Enterocele

Journal of Endourology, 1996
The repair of an enterocele has classically been via a transvaginal or open abdominal route. With the availability of minimally invasive procedures, we applied established laparoscopic techniques to enterocele repair. Three women with a history of hysterectomy had a symptomatic enterocele as well as a cystocele or rectocele.

Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair

Current Surgery, 2001
We performed a prospective study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic hernia repair in our hospital.A total of 2500 consecutive laparoscopic transabdominal hernia repairs (TAPP) were performed in 1952 patients. Their average age was 59 years. We used a mesh. 12 x 15cm.The average operating time was 32 mins.

Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2008
The safest and most effective inguinal hernia repair (laparoscopic versus open mesh) is being debated. As the authors point out, the former accounts for the minority of hernia repairs performed in the United States and around the world. The reasons for this are a demonstration in the literature of increased operative times, increased costs, and a ...

Laparoscopic parastomal hernia repair

Hernia, 2007
Management of the parastomal hernia represents a common clinical dilemma for both the surgeon and patient. Once established, these defects are notoriously difficult to treat. Although most parastomal hernias can be managed nonoperatively, approximately 30% will require intervention secondary to complications such as obstruction, pain, bleeding, poorly ...

Laparoscopic Parastomal Hernia Repair

Archives of Surgery, 2003
Historically, parastomal hernias have represented a challenge to surgeons. Unsatisfying results from surgical repair have led to many modifications over time. Surgical repair of parastomal hernias has evolved from the traditional open technique to the current laparoscopic approach.
