DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znad080.112
Abstract: In the context of improving colorectal cancer outcomes, post-survivorship quality of life has become an important outcome measure. Parastomal hernias and their associated morbidity remain largely under-reported and under-appreciated. Despite their burden, conservative management is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znad080.130
Abstract: With the emergence of new laparoscopic techniques, Intra-Peritoneal-Onlay-Mesh (IPOM) has fallen out of favor for repairing abdominal wall hernias due to reported complications, including adhesions and bowel injury, our aim is to compare complication rates… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2018.2834361
Abstract: Objective: Ventral hernia repairs using mesh prosthetics suffer from high recurrence rates, with 10%–20% of repairs failing within three years. Uneven distribution of stress within the implanted mesh prosthetic is thought to contribute to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ans.18016
Abstract: There has been a slow but steady rise in Australia over the past 20 years in the proportion of groin hernias repaired using a minimally invasive surgery (MIS) approach. In 2011/12, the absolute number of… read more here.

Perioperative group and save testing are not routinely indicated for emergency laparoscopic appendicectomy and laparoscopic hernia repairs: A North West London retrospective study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Perioperative Practice"
DOI: 10.1177/17504589221110333
Abstract: Introduction: Two valid group and saves are commonly required for patients undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy and laparoscopic hernia repairs preoperatively; however, perioperative blood transfusions are seldom required. This is financially burdensome and frequently leads to delays… read more here.
