Long-term Results in 174 Patients With a Ventral Hernia in the Midline of the Abdominal Wall After EMILOS (Endoscopic Mini/Less Open Sublay) Repair
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Endoscopic Mini/Less Open Sublay Repair for Hernia, Ventral. Completed, enrolled 174 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
Ventral hernias in the midline of the abdominal wall are one of the most frequent diseases in general and visceral surgery worldwide. The optimal operative technique is still in discussion. The traditional techniques are open sublay or transabdominal intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair. In order to avoid the risks -large trauma to the abdominal wall with pain and infection, lesion of intraabdominal organs - a new hybrid technique - small skin incision, wide endoscopic dissection of the retrorectus space with implantation of a large mesh - was developed (EMILOS -Endoscopic Mini/Less Open Sublay).
