Use of biologic mesh at ostomy takedown to prevent incisional hernia: A case series

INTRODUCTION: Incisional hernias are a relatively common occurrence after ostomy takedown with a incidence of 30–35%. The use of biologic mesh offers a means to bolster the stoma incision site with a lower risk of infection than synthetic mesh. METHODS: This study represents a retrospective chart re...

description INTRODUCTION: Incisional hernias are a relatively common occurrence after ostomy takedown with a incidence of 30–35%. The use of biologic mesh offers a means to bolster the stoma incision site with a lower risk of infection than synthetic mesh. METHODS: This study represents a retrospective chart review of six patients who underwent stoma takedown and had biologic mesh placed in the retrorectus position during repair from March 2015 until March 2016. RESULTS: There has been a zero-rate of hernia occurrence for the six patients who underwent stoma takedown. No incisional hernias were noted on physical exam with follow up ranging from 11 to 25 months. CONCLUSION: We conclude that placement of biologic mesh is a safe and effective way of preventing incisional hernias at stoma sites.
