Abstract
Introduction
When faced with contaminated ventral hernia repairs, surgeons must decide to repair the defect in a single-stage or delay the definitive repair until a clean scenario has been achieved. We sought to compare wound complications, long-term hernia recurrence and quality of life for patients who underwent delayed versus single-staged abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR) in the setting of clean-contaminated and contaminated wounds.
Methods
The Abdominal Core Health Quality Collaborative was used to identify adult patients at our institution who underwent open AWR with retromuscular synthetic mesh placement between January 2014 and August 2023. The delayed group included patients who underwent clean-contaminated or contaminated abdominal operation in the setting of a ventral hernia without placement of permanent synthetic mesh, then underwent AWR with permanent synthetic mesh placement in a separate operation. The single-staged group had clean-contaminated or contaminated wounds concomitant with AWR. Outcomes of the AWR were compared.
Results
63 patients underwent a delayed AWR and 375 patients underwent a single-staged AWR with a median(IQR) follow-up of 3(2,5)years. Most common concomitant procedures involved small intestine(30%) or hepatobiliary(30%). Most common index operations in delayed AWR were ileostomy(52.4%) and colostomy(14.2%) reversals. Median(IQR) time between initial operation and definitive AWR was 1.0 (0.7, 1.9)years. Median(IQR) hernia width was 11.35(8.4, 15.0)cm at initial operation and 16.0(15.0,20.0)cm at AWR for the delayed group(p < 0.001). Three patients (19%) in the delayed group and 14(12%) in the single-staged underwent wound debridement within 30-days(p = 0.46); a single patient in each required partial mesh excision within 30-days(p = 0.098). Wound morbidity, reoperation and hernia recurrence were similar (p > 0.05).
Conclusion
In patients with a ventral hernia and separate indication for abdominal operation with a clean-contaminated or contaminated wound, either delayed or single-stage approaches to AWR may be viable.
