Incidence and predisposing factors for incisional hernia in patients with liver transplantation

Abstract: Our rate of IH is perhaps reasonable in these high risk patients. It appears that IH can be reduced if steroids are reduced or avoided. We recommend a large mesh for repair.

“…However, methodologically we do consider our three year observation period with almost 100% complete follow-up as a strength. The inherently larger hernias and immunosuppression (and PKD incidence) in the Tx/IS group would be suspected to cause more recurrences [11,12,19,23,25,26,35,36]. Furthermore, the regression analysis (Table 5; on both groups collected) revealed a possible association between the factors 'Hernia size (ellipsoid)' and COPD with recurrence.…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5] Literatürde karaciğer nakli (KN) sonrası İH görülme sıklığı %4,6-17,2 olarak bildirilmektedir. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] İnsizyonel herni, hem estetik bir sorun oluşturur; hem de karın ağrısı, bağırsak tıkanıklığı, deri nekrozu ve bağırsak delinmesi gibi komplikasyonlara neden olabilir. [11][12][13] Karaciğer nakli sonrası bağışıklığı baskılanan hastalarda bu komplikasyonlar daha ciddi klinik tablolar ortaya çıkarabilir.…”

“…[11][12][13] Karaciğer nakli sonrası bağışıklığı baskılanan hastalarda bu komplikasyonlar daha ciddi klinik tablolar ortaya çıkarabilir. 7 Karaciğer nakli gerektiren kronik karaciğer hastaları; protein-enerji malnutrisyonunun yol aç-tığı kaşeksi ve kas kitle kaybı, hiperbilirubinemi, portal hipertansiyon sonrası oluşan asit ve immün-supresif ilaçların [kortikosteroidler, mikofenolat mofetil (MMF), mikofenolik asit, sirolimus] kullanımı gibi, İH oluşumuna katkıda bulunan ek risk faktörlerine sahiptirler. [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] Ayrıca, KN için kullanılan bilateral subkostal, "Mercedes", "hockey stick" gibi büyük karın insizyonları da İH gelişim riskini arttırabilir.…”
