Aim: One of the complications of abdominal surgical procedures is incisional hernia. This complication is encountered in different rates due to the surgical technique, type of urinary diversion preferred, and whether the patient has additional risk factors or not.
Patients And Methods: In this study, 145 patients who had undergone urinary diversions in our clinic were evaluated between the years 1989 and 2002. Of those, 17 were treated by Mainz pouch type II urinary diversion, 47 by Indiana type urinary diversion and 81 patients were treated by orthotopic urinary diversions.
Results: Incisional hernia did not occur in any of the patients who had undergone Mainz pouch type II and Indiana type urinary diversions. Eleven of 145 patients (7.5%) who had undergone urinary diversions developed incisional hernia. All of these incisional hernia occurred in patients who had undergone orthotopic type urinary diversion. These incisional hernias occurred within the first postoperative year (2-8 months).
Conclusions: We believe that increased intraabdominal pressure for micturition is the predisposing factor for the development of incisional hernias. Furthermore, the patients must avoid from sudden increase of intraabdominal pressure such as suddenly, strong valsalva maneuver during voiding. And we believe usefully press doing from the outside to abdomen during voiding (crede maneuver).

Open abdomen treatment (OAT) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In cases where primary or delayed fascial closure cannot be achieved, vacuum-assisted wound closure and mesh-mediated fascial traction are indicated, which often result in a planned ventral hernia. If secondary skin closure is not feasible, common treatment of granulated abdominal defects involves split-thickness skin-grafting or healing by secondary intention leading to significant scarring and sometimes mutilating defects.

Purpose: To present updated outcomes after previously describing a novel technique for the robotic repair of parastomal hernias.
Methods: Patients who underwent parastomal hernia repair with a robotic Sugarbaker technique at a tertiary hernia center were identified from an institutional database. The approach involves mesh placement in the intraperitoneal or preperitoneal position after closure of the fascial defect.
This study aims to mine and analyze adverse events (AEs) of Vedolizumab based on the FAERS database to better understand its safety and potential risks in the real world. Data from the second quarter of 2014 to the third quarter of 2023 were collected, employing various signal mining methods such as Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN), and Empirical Bayesian Geometric Mean (EBGM). The study gathered 14,753,012 reports of AEs, of which 46,726 were related to Vedolizumab.

Abdominal wall repair in adults with bladder exstrophy is challenging. We present a case of a 46-year-old woman with bladder exstrophy presenting with a large midline incisional hernia associated with a 13-cm hypoplasia of both pubic rami that precluded fixation of any abdominal mesh. A two-stage approach was adopted.

Purpose: The management of parastomal hernia following cystectomy and ileal conduit diversion is challenging due to its specific nature and a high recurrence rate, yet is poorly described.
Methods: We retrospectively searched the clinical data warehouse of our center for patients who had primary parastomal hernia repair following cystectomy and ileal conduit diversion. The primary endpoint was recurrence of parastomal hernia; secondary endpoints were postoperative complications and surgical management of recurrences.
