Obesity is a risk factor for ventral hernia development and affects up to 60% of patients undergoing repair. It also associated with higher rate surgical site occurrences an increased recurrence after repair, but data lacking on the differences between obesity classes.Between 2008 2018, 322 underwent laparoscopic repair in our department: class I n = 231 (72%), II 55 (17%), III 36 (11%). We compared short long-term outcomes three classes.Patients had longer median length hospital stay (5...
Introduction: Single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S), a modification of biliopancreatic diversion duodenal switch, reduces the number anastomoses and lengthens common limb, mitigating short- long-term complications related to other bilio-diverting procedures.1 As recently reported, SADI-S achieves maintains significant weight loss along improvements in metabolic health.2 However, it is technically demanding procedure requiring extensive experience bariatric...
Abstract Aim The worldwide increase in morbid obese patients raises controverises regarding the best timing of treatment for concomitant ventral hernias (VH). We present preliminary experience at a referral center bariatric surgery (BS): synchronous versus delayed hernia repair (S-VHR, D-VHR) have been compared. Material and Methods From 2009, 40 consecutive eligible BS presented with VH. Symptoms characteristics VH were evaluated to choose between S-VHR (28 patients), primary (n = 12) or...
Abstract Aim the worldwide increase in morbidly obese patients with complex hernia raises controversies choice of appropriate treatment timing: synchronous bariatric and abdominal wall surgery versus delayed surgery. We report an innovative tailored surgical carried out at our Institution. Material Methods approach provided injection, six weeks before surgery, 500 international units botulinum toxin A on either side large muscles. Four pneumoperitoneum was inducted out-patient daily sessions...
