ntroduction: Repairs of umbilical and epigastric hernias are common surgical procedures; the choice of the surgical method generally depends on the size of the hernial sac and fascial defect. Methods: Data of patients operated on for umbilical or epigastric hernias in our hospital during two years were assessed retrospectively. The study group included 264 patients; 212 had an umbilical hernia and 52 had an epigastric hernia. We assessed epidemiologic and clinical parameters and their correlation with the occurrence of early postoperative complications. We also looked for the recurrence rate, although during only a short follow-up period. Results: In the case of umbilical hernias, early complications occurred in 6.7% (11/165) after surgery with a simple suture and in 4.3% (2/47) with mesh repair, and the recurrence rates were 3% (5/165) and 21.3% (10/47), respectively. The risk of early complications was significantly higher in larger hernias. The recurrence rate increased with older age, an increased size of the hernial sac and fascial defect, and in patients with type 2 diabetes. In epigastric hernias, early complications occurred in 5.3% (1/19) after surgery with a simple suture and in 6.1% (2/33) with mesh repair. Recurrences only occurred in operations with mesh repair, in 9% (3/33). The risk of early complications was significantly higher in type 2 diabetes patients. Conclusion: Early complications were slightly more frequent in epigastric hernia repairs with mesh implantation, but this was not the case of umbilical hernias. We recommend mesh implantation in larger and borderline sized hernias to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Background: Pelvic organ prolapse is a common condition, affecting about 50% of women with children. The aim of our study was to evaluate results and complication rates in a consecutive series of female patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterosacropexy (RALHSP). Materials and Methods: We performed a medical record review of female patients with uterine prolapse who had consecutively undergone RALHSP from February 2010 to 2013 at our department. Results: Fifteen patients were included in the analysis. All patients had uterine prolapse stage ≥II and urodynamic stress urinary incontinence. The mean age was 58.26 years. According to the Clavien-Dindo system, 4 out of 15 patients (26.6%) had grade 1 early complications and 1 patient had a grade 2 complication. At a median follow-up of 36 months, there was a significant prolapse relapse rate of 20% (3/15). Conclusion: In our hands RALHSP is easy to perform, with satisfying mid-term outcomes and a low complication rate.

AbstractThe presence of postoperative complications may have a significant impact on the outcome of the breast reconstruction. The aim of this study was to investigate early postoperative complications and the risk factors for their occurrence. A prospective analysis was carried out to evaluate surgical outcomes after breast reconstructive surgeries performed over a 2-year period. Procedures included expander/implant (TE/IMP), pedicle transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (pTRAM), and latissimus dorsi (LD) techniques. All adverse events which occurred within 6 weeks of surgery were ranked according to severity based on the contracted Accordion grading system. Outcomes were assessed for their association with surgical, demographic, and clinical variables. Sixty-one consecutive breast reconstruction procedures were analyzed. The overall complication rate was 60.7% (n = 37), and 8 patients (13.1%) required reoperation. The lowest complication rate was observed in implant-based reconstructions (TE/IMP, 18.8%; pTRAM, 72.7%; LD, 78.3%; p = 0.008). Mild complications occurred significantly more often after LD reconstructions (LD, 60.9%; pTRAM, 22.7%; TE/IMP, 12.5%; p = 0.031), while severe complications were significantly more frequent after the pTRAM procedures (pTRAM, 27.3%; TE/IMP, 6.2%; LD, 8.7%; p = 0.047). Severe complications were associated with higher rehospitalization rate (p = 0.010) and longer hospital stay. Study revealed a significant impact of the operative method on the incidence and severity of early complications after breast reconstruction procedures with little effect from other demographic and clinical factors.

Background: The aim of the study was to assess soluble ST2 (sST2) concentration and its dynamic changes in the periprocedural period in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) treated with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA). Methods: We prospectively analyzed 57 procedures of BPA performed in 37 patients with CTEPH. Biomarkers, such as N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), troponin T (TnT), and sST2 were assessed at four time points: Before the BPA procedure, 24 h and 48 h after the procedure, and at the discharge from hospital. Each postprocedural period was assessed for complications. Results: Before the BPA procedure, median sST2 concentration was 26.56 ng/mL (IQR: 16.66–40.83 ng/mL). sST2 concentration was significantly higher 24 h and 48 h after the BPA compared to the baseline measurements (33.31 ng/mL (IQR: 20.81–62.56), p = 0.000 and 27.45 ng/mL (IQR: 17.66–54.45), p = 0.028, respectively). sST2 level 24 h after the BPA procedure was significantly higher in the group with complications compared to the group without complications in the postprocedural period (97.66 ng/mL (IQR: 53.07–126.18) vs. 26.86 ng/mL (IQR: 19.10–40.12), p = 0.000). Conclusions: sST2 concentration in patients with CTEPH treated with BPA changes significantly in the postprocedural period and is significantly higher in the group with complications in postprocedural period.
