“…Bessa et al [30] stated that there was no difference between elective or emergency mesh use in terms of postoperative complications and that mesh could be used safely. Papaziogas et al [31] found no difference between inguinal hernia repair with and without mesh in terms of postoperative complications and wound infection. Surgical repair using mesh is the current trend in the treatment of primary or recurrent umbilical hernias in both obese and non-obese adults due to its lower recurrence rate as compared to surgical repair by suturing (1% vs. 11%).…”

AMAÇBu çalışmada, acil cerrahi kliniğimizde boğulmuş abdominal duvar hernisi nedeniyle ameliyat edilen hastalarda morbidite ve mortaliteyle ilişkili risk faktörlerinin insidansı araştırıldı. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEMHastalar hem fıtık türüne göre (inguinal, umblikal, insizyonel, femoral) kendi aralarında hem de morbidite ve mortalite üzerine etkili faktörler bakımından; yaş, cinsiyet, Amerikan Anesteziyoloji Derneği (AAD) skoru, anestezi tipi, eşlik eden hastalıklar, intestinal boğulma ve nekroz varlığı gibi verilerle değerlendirildi. BULGULARİnguinal herni erkeklerde, umblikal ve femoral herni kadınlarda sıktı (p<0,001). Femoral hernide boğulma ve nekrozdan dolayı intestinal rezeksiyon diğer fıtık türleri-ne göre anlamlı olarak yüksek saptandı (sırasıyla, p<0,005 ve p<0,001). Morbidite ve mortalite üzerine; ileri yaş (≥65 yaş), ek hastalık, strangülasyon, nekroz, yüksek AAD skoru (III, IV), semptomların başlama ve hastaneye başvuru süresinin anlamlı etkisi bulundu. Genel anestezinin de morbidite için risk oluşturduğu görüldü (p<0,05). SONUÇBoğulmuş abdominal duvar hernileri yüksek morbidite ve mortalite oranına sahip bir cerrahi problemdir. Bu yüzden herni saptandığında elektif koşullarda ameliyat planlanmalıdır.Anahtar Sözcükler: Abdominal duvar hernisi; inkarserasyon; nekroz; strangülasyon. BACKGROUNDThe aim of the present study was to investigate morbidityand mortality-related risk factors in patients undergoing surgery due to incarcerated abdominal wall hernia. METHODSThe patients were grouped according to the type of hernia (inguinal, umbilical, incisional, femoral), and these groups were evaluated in terms of risk factors affecting morbidity and mortality such as age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, type of anesthesia, concomitant diseases, and the presences of intestinal strangulation and necrosis. RESULTSInguinal hernia was frequent in males, whereas femoral hernia was frequent in females (p<0.001). The rate of intestinal resection due to strangulation and necrosis was found significantly higher among femoral hernias as compared to the other types of hernia (p<0.005 and p<0.001, respectively). Advanced age (≥65 years), concomitant disease, strangulation, necrosis, high ASA score (III-IV), time from the onset of symptoms, and time to hospital admission were found to have significant influences on morbidity and mortality. General anesthesia was found to be a risk factor for morbidity as well (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONIncarcerated abdominal wall hernias are surgical problems with high morbidity and mortality rates. Therefore, surgery should be planned under elective conditions when hernia is detected.

Patients with incarcerated abdominal wall hernias (AWHs) are often encountered in emergency care units. Despite advances in anesthesia, antisepsis, antibiotic therapy, and fluid therapy, the morbidity and mortality rates for these patients remain high. Between 2006 and 2011, we retrospectively analyzed the cases of 131 patients who underwent emergency surgery for incarcerated abdominal wall hernias. Of these, there were 70 women (53.4%) and 61 men (46.6%) with an average age of 63.3 6 17.4 years (range, 17-91 years). Morbidity was observed in 28 patients (21.4%), and the mortality rate was 2.3%. Intestinal resection, presence of concomitant disease, and general anesthesia were the independent variants that affected morbidity of patients with incarcerated abdominal wall hernias.
