Can Hernia Sac to Abdominal Cavity Volume Ratio Predict Fascial Closure Rate for Large Ventral Hernia? Reliability of the Tanaka Score

Abstract: BACKGROUND:The hernia sac to abdominal cavity volume ratio (VR) on abdominal CT was described previously as a way to predict which hernias would be less likely to achieve fascial closure.The aim of this study was to test the reliability of the previously described cutoff ratio in predicting fascial closure in a cohort of patients with large ventral hernias. METHODS:Patients who underwent elective, open incisional hernia repair of 18 cm or larger width at a single center were identified. The primary end point o… Show more

“…Franklin and colleagues [ 11 ] used logistic regression to identify CT factors associated with bridged repair, but with only 6 such patients from 54, their analysis was underpowered [ 12 ]. Fafaj and colleagues [ 13 ] investigated the Tanaka ratio in patients with a hernia width of at least 18cm, concluding that a ratio of more than 0.25 could not predict incomplete fascial closure reliably, i.e. difficult closure was not assured in large hernias.…”

“…В целом ситуация рассматривается как потеря домена, если соотношение объемов грыжевого мешка и брюшной полости составляет 1:4 или более [30]. Многими авторами это рассматривается как однозначное показание к применению сепарационных методов вмешательства на брюшной стенке [34]. Другие хирурги даже в этой ситуации используют разделение компонентов брюшной стенки редко [29].…”

“…в первый послеоперационный день. Определение аналогичного показателя соотношения объемов (VRvolume ratio, отношение объемов грыжевого мешка и брюшной полости) с помощью КТ является довольно точным инструментом прогнозирования потребности в использовании участка сетки в виде «моста» (bridging) между краями передних листков влагалищ прямых мышц живота даже после осуществления всех этапов задней сепарации [34].…”
