Delphi consensus statement for understanding and managing the subcostal hernia: subcostal hernias collaborative report (scholar study)
ConclusionThis Delphi consensus defines subcostal hernias and gives insight into the consensus for incision, dissection plane, mesh placement, mesh type, and mesh fixation for these hernias. (Source: Hernia)

The significance of initial lactate levels in emergency department presentations of abdominal wall hernia
ConclusionLow lactate levels in patients presenting to the emergency department with abdominal pain caused by abdominal wall hernias have a high negative predictive value for excluding strangulation and the need for bowel resection. Therefore, we recommend the use of lactate as an additional diagnostic tool in emergency department presentations related to abdominal wall hernias. (Source: Hernia)

Ventral hernia repair using bioresorbable poly-4-hydroxybutyrate mesh in clean and contaminated surgical fields: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsP4HB biosynthetic mesh may be more effective than previously thought, particularly in clean wounds. P4HB may also be superior to biologic mesh when compared to clinical trial data. Further research is necessary for more direct comparison. (Source: Hernia)

Factors associated with conversion from day-case to in-patient elective inguinal hernia repair surgery across England: an observational study using administrative data
ConclusionsThere was considerable variation in conversion to in-patient stay rates for inguinal hernia repair across ICBs in England. Our findings should help surgical teams to better identify patients suitable for day-case inguinal hernia repair and plan discharge services more effectively. This should help to reduce the variation in conversion rates. (Source: Hernia)

Does the angle of trocar insertion affect the fascial defect caused? A porcine model
ConclusionWhen conical 12-mm trocars are inserted at a 45 ° angle, especially bladeless ones, they appear to cause small fascial defects compared with insertion at a 90° angle. This might lead also to a lower rate of trocar hernias. Bladeless trocars might cause smaller fascial defects than bladed trocars. (Source: Hernia)

Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) with fascial repair (IPOM-plus) for ventral and incisional hernia: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionThe IPOM-plus technique has been shown to greatly reduce the occurrence of recurrence, seroma, and mesh bulging. Overall, the IPOM-plus technique is considered a safe and effective procedure. However, additional randomized controlled studies with extended follow-up periods are necessary to further evaluate the IPOM-plus technique. (Source: Hernia)
