摘要
Background: The incidence of trocar site hernia (TSH) after laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) is reported to be low. The present study investigates the associated risk factors, with a view to preventing this complication. Methods: A retrospective study was made of the incidence of TSH in a personal series of LVHR, recording anthropometric and clinical data on the patients. Risk factors were assessed by bivariate and multivariate analyses. The patients were subjected to clinical and telephone follow-up. Results: In a series of 27 LVHR, the incidence of TSH was 22% (6 patients). The use of meshes larger than 10 x 15 cm for LVHR was the only TSH risk factor to reach statistical significance. Female gender and diabetes showed a higher incidence in the TSH group. Conclusions: The use of large meshes may be a risk factor for TSH. We believe this to be due to dilatation of the trocar orifice during introduction of the mesh, and also to postoperative retraction of the mesh.
