Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and effectiveness of a hybrid mesh (GORE® SYNECOR Intraperitoneal Biomaterial) in patients with a BMI of 30 kg/m2 or more undergoing laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) with intraperitoneal position of the mesh.

Detailed Description

A prospective Italian multicenter observational trial will be conducted in 8 different Italian centers to compare the effectiveness and feasibility of treatment of Incisional Hernia with GORE® SYNECOR Intraperitoneal Biomaterial mesh in patients with BMI \>30 kg/m2. This study was reviewed and approved by the local regional Ethics Committee. The study adhered to the CONSORT guidelines in reporting this trial's results

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Incisional Hernia at Clinical examinationPatients are postoperatively examined at 36 months.

Clinical examination: Incisional Hernia is clinically defined as any visible or palpable ''blowout'' in site of incisional hernia treated

Rate of Incisional Hernia at ultrasonographic examinationPatients are postoperatively examined at 36 months.

An abdominal ultrasonography with the patient lying prone, will be performed in in all patients (symptomatic or asymptomatic) providing any valuable information about Hernia Recurrence onset. Valsalva maneuver will be performed during the ultrasonography scan. Size and location of all imaging detected Hernia Recurrence will be recorded, as well as any other patient's complaint.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of patients affected by Deep surgical site infectionsWithin 30 days postoperatively

Deep surgical site infections according to Clavien-Dindo criteria

Number of patients affected by Superficial surgical site infectionsWithin 30 days postoperatively

Superficial infections according to Clavien-Dindo criteria

Number of patients affected by organ space infectionsWithin 30 days postoperatively

Organ space infections according to Clavien-Dindo criteria

Number of patients affected by Surgical Site OccurenceWithin 30 days postoperatively

Surgical Site Occurence Reported according to the Ventral Hernia Working Group (VHWG) definitions

Postoperative painPostoperative pain will be recorded according to visual analogue scale at 24 months.

Postoperative pain will be recorded according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) measures pain intensity. The Visual Analogue Scale consists of a 10cm line, with two end points representing 0 ('no pain') and 10 ('pain as bad as it could possibly be').
