Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The present study clarified experimentally the laparoscopic repair of forty abdominal human cases suffering abdominal ventral hernia. Most patients experience some sort of overweight and others were morbidly obese. The mean fascial defected size was 210 cm2. The operative time varied from one patient to another and most of the extra time was either in the lysis of the adhesions (between bowels or between bowel and abdominal wall) or in suturing the inadvertent enterotomies occurred during the dissection. The mean operative time was 170 minutes with a range of 140-210 minutes. The mean duration of hospital stay was 3.6 days with a range of 2 to 8 days. The outcome of the result was encouraging. |
