Journal ArticleDOI

Transversus abdominis muscle release: a novel approach to posterior component separation during complex abdominal wall reconstruction.

TL;DR: The novel technique for posterior component separation was associated with a low perioperative morbidity and a low recurrence rate, and transversus abdominis muscle release may be an important addition to the armamentarium of surgeons undertaking major abdominal wall reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term outcomes of laparoscopic resection of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

TL;DR: A laparoscopic approach to surgical resection of gastric GIST is associated with low morbidity and short hospitalization, and the long-term disease-free survival of 92% in this study establishes Laparoscopic resection as safe and effective in treating gastrics GISTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Outcomes of Synthetic Mesh in Contaminated Ventral Hernia Repairs

TL;DR: Although perhaps not yet considered standard of care in the United States, this work has demonstrated favorable infection, recurrence, and mesh removal rates associated with the use of synthetic mesh in contaminated VHR.
Journal ArticleDOI

The net immunologic advantage of laparoscopic surgery

TL;DR: In addition to improved cosmesis and faster functional recovery, a patient undergoing laparoscopic surgery may benefit most from a net immunologic advantage, which may result in diminished perioperative tumor dissemination and better cancer outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel approach using the enhanced-view totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) technique for laparoscopic retromuscular hernia repair

TL;DR: The authors' initial multicenter evaluation of the eTEP access technique for ventral and incisional hernias has found the approach feasible and effective and offers flexible port set-up optimal for laparoscopic closure of defects, along with wide mesh coverage in the retromuscular space with minimal transfascial fixation.
