Parastomal hernias after cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion: surgical treatment and the use of prophylactic mesh: a systematic review. BMC Surg 2022; 22:118. [PMID: 35351086 PMCID: PMC8966280 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-022-01509-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Parastomal hernia after ileal conduit urinary diversion is an underestimated and undertreated clinical entity, which heavily impairs patients' quality of life due to symptoms of pain, leakage, application or skin problems. As for all gastrointestinal stomata the best surgical repair technique has yet to be determined. Thereby, surgery for ileal conduit parastomal hernias poses some specific perioperative challenges. This review aims to give an overview of current evidence on the surgical treatment of parastomal hernia after cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion, and on the use of prophylactic mesh at index surgery in its prevention. METHODS A systematic review was performed according to PRISMA-guidelines. The electronic databases Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched. Studies were included if they presented postoperative outcomes of patients undergoing surgical treatment of parastomal hernia at the ileal conduit site, irrespective of the technique used. A search was performed to identify additional studies on prophylactic mesh in the prevention of ileal conduit parastomal hernia, that were not identified by the initial search. RESULTS Eight retrospective case-series were included for analysis, reporting different surgical techniques. If reported, highest complication rate was 45%. Recurrence rates varied highly, ranging from 0 to 80%. Notably, lower recurrence rates were reported in studies with shorter follow-up. Overall, available data suggest significant morbidity after the surgical treatment of ileal conduit parastomal hernias. Data from five conference abstracts on the matter were retrieved, and systematically reported. Regarding prophylactic mesh in the prevention of ileal conduit parastomal hernia, 5 communications were identified. All of them used keyhole mesh in a retromuscular position, and reported on favorable results in the mesh group without an increase in mesh-related complications. CONCLUSION Data on the surgical treatment of ileal conduit parastomal hernias and the use of prophylactic mesh in its prevention is scarce. Given the specific perioperative challenges and the paucity of reported results, more high-quality evidence is needed to determine the optimal treatment of this specific surgical problem. Initial results on the use of prophylactic mesh in the prevention of ileal conduit parastomal hernias seem promising.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parastomal hernia after radical cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion is an underestimated and undertreated condition with significant impact on quality of life. However, its surgical treatment is challenging and prone to complications and the optimal surgical treatment of this condition remains to be determined. METHODS In this article, we describe our surgical techniques in the minimally invasive treatment of ileal conduit parastomal hernia and present our preliminary results. In a retrospective single-center design, a prospectively maintained database was screened. Data from all patients undergoing surgical treatment for a parastomal hernia after cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion in our center were collected. RESULTS Between May 2016 and June 2020, 15 patients underwent minimally invasive repair of a parastomal hernia of an ileal conduit. Details on the surgical approach are provided, along with a flow chart to standardize the choice of surgical technique, depending on the presence of a concomitant midline incisional hernia and perioperative findings. The majority of patients were treated with robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery (10/15; 66.7%). Median postoperative hospital stay was 5 days. One-third of patients developed a postoperative urinary infection. Median follow-up was 366 days. One patient developed a local recurrence of her parastomal hernia on day 66 postoperatively, treated with intraperitoneal mesh. CONCLUSION The minimally invasive surgical treatment of a parastomal hernia after ileal conduit urinary diversion poses specific perioperative challenges that require a broad surgical armamentarium and a tailored approach. Preliminary results confirm a significant morbidity after this type of surgery.

Abstract
Parastomal hernia is one of the common complications of permanent stoma. Surgical management is associated with relatively high recurrence rate. Modified Sugarbaker and keyhole techniques are the most cited intraperitoneal mesh repairs. Our modified keyhole technique overcame the weakness of the keyhole technique.
Introduction Parastomal hernia is one of the common complications of permanent stoma, and its incidence was nearly 50%. Surgical management is challenging and associated with relatively high recurrence rate. Mesh repair was demonstrated to reduce recurrence compared to non-mesh repair, and modified Surgerbaker and keyhole technique are the most cited intraperitoneal mesh repairs. In the keyhole technique, recurrence often occurs by herniation through the central hole. We present four parastomal hernia cases successfully repaired by modified keyhole technique, in which a cylinder-shaped synthetic mesh was attached to the keyhole mesh to cover the angle between the keyhole and the bowel. Presentation of cases There were 1 male and 3 females with mean BMI of 25.7 kg/m2. Mean operative time was 114 min. There were two end-colostomies, one loop-ileostomy and one ileal conduit cases. Postoperative complication was observed in two cases, which was cerebral infarction and paralytic ileus. There were neither infectious complications nor seroma formation, and mean postoperative hospital stay was 18 days. With mean follow-up time of 36 months (range 10–66), we experienced no recurrence. Conclusions Having lower recurrence rate, the modified Sugerbaker technique is considered preferable over the keyhole technique, but the bowel going to the stoma needs to be lateralized enough to be covered by relatively large mesh, which is not always accomplished. In such instances, our modified keyhole technique would be a feasible alternative.

[PMID: 32030548 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-020-07377-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2019] [Accepted: 01/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesh repair of parastomal hernia is widely accepted as superior to non-mesh repair, yet the most favorable surgical approach is a subject of continued debate. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of open versus laparoscopic parastomal hernia repair. METHODS An IRB-approved retrospective review was conducted comparing laparoscopic (LPHR) or open (OPHR) parastomal hernia repair performed between 2009 and 2017 at our facilities. Patient demographics, preoperative characteristics, operative details, and clinical outcomes were compared by surgical approach. Subgroup analysis was performed by location of mesh placement. Repair longevity was measured using Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression. Intention to treat analysis was used for this study based on initial approach to the repair. RESULTS Sixty-two patients (average age of 61 years) underwent repair (31 LPHR, 31 OPHR). Patient age, gender, BMI, ASA Class, and comorbidity status were similar between OPHR and LPHR. Stoma relocation was more common in OPHR (32% vs 7%, p = .022). Open sublay subgroup was similar to LPHR in terms of wound class and relocation. Open "Other" and Sublay subgroups resulted in more wound complications compared to LPHR (70% and 48% vs 27%, p = .036). Operative duration and hospital length of stay were less with LPHR (p < .001). After adjustment for prior hernia repair, risk of recurrence was higher for OPHR (p = .022) and Open Sublay and Other subgroups compared to LPHR (p = .005 and p = .027, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic repair of parastomal hernias is associated with shorter operative duration, decreased length of stay, fewer short-term wound complications, and increased longevity of repair compared to open repairs. Direct comparison of repair longevity between LPHR and OPHR with mesh using Kaplan-Meier estimate is unique to this study. Further study is warranted to better understand methods of parastomal hernia repair associated with fewer complications and increased durability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report and evaluate our open surgical technique for the treatment of parastomal hernias (PSH) after ileal conduit urinary diversion and results using a specifically designed, three-dimensional intraperitoneal onlay mesh aiming to minimize PSH recurrence and perioperative complications. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated all patients who developed a PSH after ileal conduit urinary diversion and were treated with the 3-dimensional alloplastic IPST mesh at the Marien Hospital Herne, Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany between 01/2009 and 12/2015. As a surgical approach, we used a small, open incision in order to reduce the hernia sac and place the mesh. Subsequently, we performed a voluntary follow-up of the surviving patients to evaluate long-term recurrence and complication rates. In addition, we conducted a reassessment of the cross-sectional imaging available. RESULTS Between January 2009 and December 2015, 40 patients underwent hernia repair due to a clinically significant hernia. Out of those patients, 1 suffered from a postoperative wound infection. In total 27 patients participated in a voluntary follow-up with a median follow-up period of 29 months (IQR 16, 63 months). Follow-up examination revealed 2 cases of recurrent PSH (7, .4%), 2 patients who developed stoma stenosis (7.4%) and 5 patients who suffered from minor complications (18.5%). CONCLUSION Our localized open surgical approach using a 3-dimensional mesh implant presents an effective method of treating a PSH with a low complication and recurrence rate.

Abstract
A 63-year-old woman with history of stage II rectal adenocarcinoma status postneoadjuvant chemoradiation and subsequent abdominoperineal resection presented with worsening bulge and inability to pouch stoma. CT scan revealed a 4-cm parastomal hernia. After discussion with the patient regarding management options, she elected to undergo repair of hernia defect. A robot-assisted laparoscopic parastomal hernia repair with synthetic mesh via the Sugarbaker technique was performed. After a short stay in the hospital, the patient recovered well and reported no recurrent symptoms.
