Trial summary

Parastomal hernia (PSH) is difficult to manage, with high rates of post-operative recurrence and complication. Keyhole and Sugarbaker are the most commonly used techniques in the surgical repair of the PSH. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Sugarbaker and Keyhole Repair for Parastomal Hernia: 10 Years of Experience From a Single Center in China

Parastomal hernia (PSH) is difficult to manage, with high rates of post-operative recurrence and complication. Keyhole and Sugarbaker are the most commonly used techniques in the surgical repair of the PSH. However, the efficacy and safety of the two surgical methods have not been adequately compared in the East Asian population.

Patients diagnosed with PSH who underwent Sugarbaker or Keyhole repair from August 2012 to August 2022 will be included. Patient demographic data and postoperative outcomes will be retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcome measure is the recurrence rate at one year follow-up time.

Read the detailed description

Consecutive patients undergoing surgical PSH repair in the Hernia Center of Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from August 2012 to August 2022 were included in this study. Huadong Hospital undertakes surgical treatment of complex hernia and abdominal wall diseases in Shanghai, China. The surgical records and clinical data of patients will be retrospectively analyzed. Due to the retrospective design of the study, the patient's informed consent was waived. The study was conducted following the ethical standards set out in the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki and its later amendments.

The patient's surgical strategy was made by the center's experienced colorectal surgeons or specialists in the department of hernia and abdominal wall surgery. In surgical practice, preference is given to the laparoscopic approach, while open surgery is chosen in cases of severe abdominal adhesions. The following three aspects of clinical data were recorded: (1) patients' demographic data, such as age, sex, the primary disease for the stoma, body mass index and comorbidities; (2) Surgical details: repair technique, size of abdominal wall defect, duration of the surgical procedure; (3) Short-term and long-term postoperative outcomes: the primary outcome is the recurrence rate at one year follow-up time, while the secondary outcomes were length and cost of the hospitalization, and rates of the intensive care unit admission, chronic pain, surgical site infection (SSI), re-admission and re-operation rates within 30 days after surgery, major complications after surgery, and surgery-related death.

Only PSH patients who received intraperitoneal onlay Sugarbaker and Keyhole mesh were included. These patients were scheduled for follow-up appointments at the outpatient clinics, specifically at 1 month, 3 months, and 1 year after surgery. If recurrence is suspected by the surgeon after a physical examination, the patient would be requested for an abdominal CT scan. During the CT scan, patients were asked to perform the Valsava maneuver to facilitate the identification of any potential recurrences through imaging. Postoperative major complications were defined as complications requiring hospitalization after surgery to the one-year follow-up time. Patients with follow-up periods of less than one year were excluded from the cohort. Recorded death, recurrence, or loss to follow-up were considered to be the endpoint.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Keyhole repairOther

    The keyhole technique involves placing a mesh with a slit in the central hole around the intestinal ring, allowing facilitating the passage of the intestine through the central slit.

  • Sugarbaker repairOther

    The modified Sugarbaker technique uses a mesh to place a patch on the lateralized intestine, effectively preventing herniation of abdominal contents through the stoma.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. recurrence rate

    recurrence was determined by CT scan

    Measured: one year follow-up time

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. surgical site infection

    wound infection in the surgical site

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

  2. reoperation and readmission

    rates of the patients suffered from reoperation and readmission

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

  3. chronic pain

    rate of patients suffered from chronic pain in the surgical site

    Measured: one year follow-up time

  4. major complication

    rate of patients suffered from severe complications (need hospitalization)

    Measured: one year follow-up time

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parastomal Hernia, run by Fudan University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
