ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Laparoscopic primary or incisional abdominal hernia repair with intraperitoneal mesh placement is a well-accepted and safe technique. Evidence for complications however remains inconclusive, and little is known about the occurrence of postoperative ileus secondary to postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions with different types of IPOM meshes used. Therefore, we retrospectively compared the occurrence of postoperative ileus between two of the different meshes used in our center.METHODS:
Three hundred seventy-five patients who underwent ventral hernia repair with intraperitoneal mesh placement, either with a DynaMesh®-IPOM (FEG Textiltechnik mbH, Aachen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) or a Parietex™ Composite mesh (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA), at the Heilig-Hart Hospital in Lier (Antwerp, Belgium) between 2012 and 2017 were retrospectively compared with regard to the occurrence of postoperative ileus until 6 weeks postoperatively. Baseline demographics and clinical data up to 6 weeks postoperatively of the patients in the two mesh groups are provided.RESULTS:
The DynaMesh®-IPOM mesh group was associated with a significantly higher incidence of postoperative ileus compared with the Parietex™ Composite mesh group with a cutoff limit at postoperative day 1 (n = 17, 6.8% vs. n = 0, 0.0%; P = 0.003) and postoperative day 4 (n = 13, 5.2% vs. n = 0, 0.0%, P = 0.006), even with a mesh surface area of ≤ 300 cm2 and when both meshes were fixated with the same method of fixation (Securestrap™) with a cutoff limit for postoperative ileus at postoperative day 1 (n = 4, 7.7% vs. n = 0, 0.0%; P = 0.013) and postoperative day 4 (n = 3, 5.8% vs. n = 0, 0.0%, P = 0.040). Of the 17 patients with a postoperative ileus, 9 (52.9%) had a suspicion of adhesive small bowel obstruction on CT scan (P = 0.033) with definitive confirmation of small bowel adhesions with the DynaMesh®-IPOM mesh at laparoscopy in 2 patients.CONCLUSION:
Our results confirm current literature available regarding postoperative ileus secondary to postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions with the DynaMesh®-IPOM mesh. However, further research with well-designed, multicenter randomized controlled studies to evaluate the use and related complications of these meshes is needed.Palavras-chave
