No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Trocar site incisional hernia (TSIH) is the most frequent complication associated to laparoscopic surgery. Few studies currently describes its real prevalence or risk factors. The aim of this study is to determine the real incidence of TSIH and to identify risk factors in the investigator's series of patients.

A cross sectional, prospective study is performed including consecutive patients who underwent a laparoscopic procedure during a four months period. All the patients are assessed both clinically (TSIHc) and by an ultrasonographic exam (TSIHu). Main variable studied is the incidence of TSIH. A multivariate analysis is performed to identify risk factors.
