NCT05620121

Brief Summary

This observational, retrospective study aims to examine surgical outcomes in non-elective surgery for incisional hernia. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • 30-day morbidity
  • short- and long-term surgical outcomes Data will be retrospectively collected from participating centers and compared. Researchers will compare surgical outcomes of the minimally invasive and laparotomic approaches to see if there are relevant differences in surgical outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 30-day morbidity

    (according to Clavien-Dindo classification) in patients who underwent abdominal wall repair for Incisional Hernia with/without prosthetic material in urgent/emergent settings, with the laparoscopic or the laparotomic approach.

    first 30 days after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • 30-day mortality

    first 30 days after surgery

  • 30-day hospital readmission rate

    first 30 days after surgery

  • Reoperation rate

    01 january 2018 - 31 December 2021

  • Short-term IH recurrence

    01 january 2018 - 31 December 2021
