Incisional hernia is the name given to hernias that form in the incision site after abdominal operations. The only treatment option for incisional hernias is surgery and the repair of incisional hernias is still a serious issue for surgeons. The aim of this study is to present an alternative surgical treatment procedure for the treatment of incisional hernias.
The study included patients who were diagnosed with complex incisional hernia and underwent surgery between November 2016 and December 2017. In addition to demographic data such as age and gender, the operative and postoperative morbidity and mortality rates were documented. The patients who underwent additional surgical procedure other than herniography were excluded from the study.
The study included 16 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of 16 patients, nine (56.25%) were male and seven (43.75%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 51.25 years and the mean body mass index was 25.3 kg/m2. The hernia size measured in the computed tomography was 11.01 cm on average in men and 11.56 cm on average in women. The intravesical pressure measured intraoperatively before the surgery was 3.4 mmHg on average. While the mean intravesical pressure was found as 12.25 mmHg after the abdomen was closed, the mean intravesical pressure was measured as 6.43 mmHg after the relaxation incision and graft installment. The duration of the surgery was 48 minutes on average. In the postoperative period, paralytic ileus responsive to treatment was observed in two patients and skin necrosis was observed in one patient. No pulmonary embolism, respiratory problems and compartment syndrome that may cause mortality developed in patients. No recurrence was observed in patients in the control one year after the surgery.
The golden standard surgical method for the incisional hernia surgery has yet to be determined. There is still a need for prospective randomized studies. We believe that our technique can be an alternative to other techniques in the incisional hernia surgery due to its easy applicability and low rate of complications.
ÖZET
İnsizyonel herni, karın ameliyatlarından sonra kesi yerinde oluşan hernilere verilen isimdir. Tek tedavi seçeneği cerrahi olan insizyonel hernilerin tamiri halen cerrahlar için ciddi bir sorun teşkil etmektedir. Bu makalemizde insizyonel hernilerin tedavisinde alternatif cerrahi tedavi prosedürümüzü sunmayı amaçladık.
Çalışmaya Kasım 2016 ile Aralık 2017 yılları arasında kompleks insizyonel herni tanısı ile cerrahi tedavi uygulanmış hastalar dahil edildi. Yaş, cinsiyet gibi demografik verilerinin yanı sıra operatif ve postoperatif morbidite ve mortalite oranları dokümante edildi. Herniografi dışında ek cerrahi prosedür uygulanan hastalar çalışmadan çıkartılmıştır.
Çalışmaya kriterleri taşıyan 16 hasta dahil edilmiştir. 16 hastanın 9’u (%56,25) erkek iken 7’si (%43,75) kadın cinsiyet idi. Hastaların genel yaş ortalaması 51,25 yıl ve vücut kitle indeksi ortalama 25,3 kg/m2 olarak saptandı. Bilgisayarlı tomografide ölçülen herni çapı erkeklerde ortalama 11,01 cm iken kadınlarda 11,6 cm saptandı. Cerrahi öncesi intraoperatif ölçülen mesane içi basıncı ortalama 3.4 mmHg saptandı. Karın kapatıldıktan sonra ortalama mesane içi basıncı 12.25 mmHg saptanırken relaksasyon insizyonu ve greft konulduktan sonra ortalama mesane içi basınç 6,43 mmHg olarak ölçüldü. İntraoperatif hemoraji ortalama 100 cc ve cerrahi süresi ortalama 48 dakika saptandı. Postoperatif dönemde 2 hastada medikal tedaviye yanıt veren paralitik ileus ve 1 hastada cilt nekrozu saptandı. Hiçbir hastada mortaliteye neden olabilecek pulmoner emboli, respiratuvar problemler ve kompartman sendromu ile karşılaşılmamıştır. Cerrahi sonrası birinci yıl kontrolünde hiçbir hastada nüks saptanmamıştır.
İnsizyonel herni cerrahisinde altın standart cerrahi tedavi yöntemi halen ortaya konulamamıştır. Halen prospektif randomize çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Tekniğimizin kolay uygulanabilir olması, düşük komplikasyon oranları ile insizyonel herni cerrahisinde diğer tekniklere alternatif olabileceği düşüncesindeyiz.
