Comparative Evaluation of Preoperative Preparation Methods in Patients With Large Incisional Hernias
Sponsor: State Budget Public Health Institution Scientific Research Institute - Ochapovsky Regional Clinical Hospital
Summary
Patients with large, complex, or giant incisional hernias often require advanced preoperative optimization to facilitate safe abdominal wall reconstruction and reduce postoperative complications. Several strategies are currently used in clinical practice, including botulinum toxin A injection, progressive preoperative pneumoperitoneum, and their combination. However, the optimal differentiated approach based on hernia characteristics and abdominal wall tissue deficiency remains unclear. This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of different preoperative preparation strategies in patients with large postoperative ventral hernias and loss of abdominal wall domain. Outcomes of patients receiving botulinum toxin A, progressive preoperative pneumoperitoneum, combined preparation, or no specific preparation will be analyzed. The study will evaluate operative feasibility, ability to achieve fascial closure, postoperative complications, recurrence, and overall treatment outcomes.
