Genetic Examination of Patients With Primary Multiple Hernia

NCT00979095 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2010-10-13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators are performing a genetic study of patients with multiple hernias (at least 3 primary hernias) versus a healthy control group. This genetic information is compared with circulating and subcutaneously biomarkers such as matrix-metalloproteinases (MMP's).

The hypothesis is that patients with multiple hernias have different expression of specific genes compared to the healthy control group.
