The Laparoscopic Total Extraperitoneal Parastomal Hernia Repair as a Modification of Sugabecker's Operation
Methods: A comprehensive review of patients undergoing laparoscopic TEP parastomal hernia repair between 2024 and 2026 will be performed. Patient demographics, operative details, intraoperative complications, postoperative morbidity, recovery times, and hernia recurrence rates will be collate and analyze.
Results: The study will include 30 patients with a median follow-up period of 1month (firstly viewer's point) and 12 months (second view point ). The all of parastomal hernias will associated with colostomies. Early mobilization will achieve, with most patients returning to their routine activities within 2 weeks. Discussion: We anticipate that the data will suggest the laparoscopic TEP technique for parastomal hernia repair is a viable alternative to traditional methods, with a favorable safety profile. The minimally invasive nature of the operation appears to facilitate enhanced recovery while maintaining low recurrence rates. Compared to the original Sugarbaker operation, where the mesh is placed intraperitoneally, the extraperitoneal placement of the mesh in TEP repair minimizes the potential for adhesion formation and related complications. Furthermore, aesthetic outcomes and patient satisfaction reports indicate a positive outlook.
Conclusion: The laparoscopic TEP approach for parastomal hernia repair offers a modification to the Sugarbaker operation with potential benefits, including reduced operative morbidity, faster recovery, and potentially lower recurrence rates. Extended follow-up and comparison with the traditional approach are warranted to conclusively establish the long-term outcomes of this technique. This study contributes to the evolving surgical management of parastomal hernias, advancing towards less invasive and more patient-centered treatment modalities.
