Laparoscopic Sandwich Technique: A Promising Option for Parastomal Hernia Repair

A study from Catalonia, Spain, examined the effectiveness of the laparoscopic sandwich technique for parastomal hernia repair, which uses a double intraperitoneal mesh. Out of 38 patients, the recurrence rate was 7.9%, and the most common complication leading to recurrence was postoperative issues like seroma, hematoma, and surgical site infection. The sandwich technique demonstrated consistent recurrence rates with existing literature, emphasizing its potential as a reliable option for parastomal hernia repair.
