Introduction: This study was designed to identity risk factors for parastomal hernia occurring after abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer.

Methods: The study group was comprised of 158 patients with rectal cancer who underwent abdominoperineal resection in our department from January 1990 through December 2014. Twelve variables were studied as risk factors for parastomal hernia.

Results: Parastomal hernia developed in 27 patients, including 19 patients who underwent colostomy creation via an intraperitoneal route and 8 patients who underwent colostomy creation via an extraperitoneal route. On univariate analysis, a BMI ≥25 kg/m was significantly related to the development of parastomal hernia (P = 0. 018), and an ASA physical status ≥2 was slightly but not significantly related to parastomal hernia (P = 0. 076). Multivariate analysis showed that a BMI ≥25 kg/m was an independent risk factor (odds ratio = 2.9698; P = 0. 016).

Conclusion: Patients with a BMI ≥25 kg/m should be instructed about lifestyle modifications to control preoperative bodyweight and to reduce abdominal pressure.

Objectives: Despite being a common side effect of stoma surgery, little is known about the health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) impact of parastomal hernia (PSH). We studied the association between HRQoL and self-reported PSH using data from the large CIPHER prospective cohort study of patients living with a stoma.

Methods: Over 12 months, HRQoL was captured at up to four time points for 2,341 individuals with stomas using EuroQol-5D-5L (EQ-5D-5L).

Introduction: Parastomal hernias (PSH) are a frequent complication following ostomy surgery, often requiring surgical intervention. Robotic surgery offers potential advantages in PSH repair, but evidence on its efficacy remains limited. This systematic review evaluates the outcomes of different robotic PSH repair techniques.

Retrospective studies have suggested that performing perioperative abdominal wall exercises may decrease the incidence of parastomal hernias. This study seeks to assess the usefulness of supervised preoperative and postoperative abdominal wall exercises in the prevention of parastomal hernia. An observational study of patients who underwent a stoma, temporary or permanent, between January 2019 and December 2020, was performed.

Introduction: Former stoma-site incisional hernia (FSH) is a common complication after ostomy reversal, with a variable reported incidence of up to 50%. Current literature suggests that FSH is underreported due to the lack of a definitive understanding of the timeline of its occurrence and recurrence, making FSH prevention a clinical dilemma. This study identifies FSH risk factors and diagnostic timeline to aid surgeons' clinical decision-making.

Introduction: Limited evidence exists regarding differences in post-operative renal function and ileal conduit-related complications, including ureteroenteric anastomotic stricture (UAS) and parastomal hernia (PH), between radical cystectomy (RC) with extracorporeal urinary diversion (ECUD) and robot-assisted RC with intracorporeal UD (ICUD).

Methods: We retrospectively collected the baseline and post-RC follow-up data from 179 patients receiving RC with ileal conduit UD (152 ECUD and 27 ICUD). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, mL/min/1.
