All of these patients received modified laparoscopic Sugarbakerhernia repair treatment. This modifed technique included an innovative three-point anchoring and complete su-turing technique to fix the mesh. All procedures were performed by a skilled hernia surgeon. Demographic data and perioperative outcomes were collected to eva-luate the safety and effcacy of this modifed technique.RESULTSOf these eight patients, two had concomitant incisional hernias. All the hernias were repaired by the modifed laparoscopic Sugarbaker technique with no conversion to laparotomy. Three patients had in-situ reconstruc-tion of intestinal stoma. The median mesh size was 300 cm2, and the mean operative time was 205.6 min. The mean postoperative hospitalization time was 10.4 d, with a median pain score of 1 (visual analog scale method) at postoperative day 1. Two patientsdeveloped postoperative complications. One patient had a pocket of effusion surrounding the biologic mesh, and one patient experienced an infection around the reconstructed stoma. Both patients recovered after conservative management. There was no recurrence during the follow-up period (6-22 mo, average 13 mo).CONCLUSIONThe modifed laparoscopic Sugarbaker repair could fx the mesh reliably with mild postoperative pain and a low recurrence rate. The technique is safe and feasible for parastomal hernias.展开更多

It refers to a progressive disease process within the peritoneum which originates from the appendix or ovaries and is characterised by the production of copious amounts of mucinous fluid resulting in a “jelly belly”. If untreated the condition is fatal. The traditional approach to PMP is based on repeated surgical debulking procedures, often associated with intraperitoneal or systemic chemotherapy. The natural history of this disease has been drastically modified since the introduction of a new surgical approach defined as a peritonectomy procedure. This paper is to review the literature on this treatment strategy.展开更多
