Comparison of Cousin Biotech® Adhesix* versus conventional mesh in open anterior inguinal hernia repair: a Multi-centre, Randomised, Double-blinded, Controlled Clinical Trial.

We would like to conduct a multicentre randomised controlled clinical trial to compare the difference in early postoperative pain after unilateral primary inguinal hernia repair in males. The procedures will be performed in day surgery. Early…

Reinforcement of closure of stoma site

To assess whether a biological mesh (collagen tissue matrix) reduces the incidence of clinically detectable stoma closure site hernias at two years compared to standard closure techniques.

Recurrence rate of hiatal hernia repair with biomesh compared to repair without mesh * a double blinded, randomized, controlled trial.

The above mentioned literature shows that repair of a hiatal hernia using a mesh gives fewer recurrences than repair without mesh. However, there are few prospective randomized controlled trials that provide clear results about this. The most…

A Multicenter, Prospective, Single-Blind, Randomized, Controlled, Study of the Repair of Challenging Abdominal Wall Defects: Strattice TM in abdominal Wall Repair (StaR)

The primary objective of this clinical study is to compare the incidence of post-repair wound related complications, including hernia occurence/reccurence between challenging abdominal wall defects repaired with Strattice Reconstructive Tissue…

Prevent Trial;Prevention of parastomal hernia during construction of a colostomy by reinforcing the bowel wall with a polypropylene mesh. ;A multicentre randomized controlled trial.

Patients in whom a permanent (end) colostomy is created in (semi) elective setting are randomised between the placement of a polypropylene mesh during stoma creation and the classic method without a mesh. Primary aim: Does the use of a lightweight…

Randomized Controlled Trial of Laparoscopic Primary Crural Repair versus Primary Repair with Circular Bio-absorbable Hiatal Mesh Reinforcement in Hiatal Hernia Repair

To define the optimum laparoscopic hiatus hernia repair, ensuring long-term effect with minimal postoperative side effects.

Prevention of incisional hernias with prophylactic synthetic mesh placement during stoma reversal

The aim of this study is therefore to prospectively investigate whether prophylactic synthetic mesh placement reduces the rate of stomal site incisional hernias after stoma closure without increasing (infectious) complications.
