Peristomal Hernia Rate 5 Years After a Terminal Colostomy With the Parietex 10 TCM Parietal Prosthesis Versus Without Mesh: Material-epidemiology Study

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating long-term outcomes in patients who underwent a terminal colostomy, comparing those who had a lightweight monofilament mesh placed during the procedure with those who did not. This observational study follows participants from the GRECCAR 07 cohort to observe the rate of parastomal hernia and other related complications five years after colostomy formation. The study involves two groups: one with mesh placement during colostomy formation and one without mesh. The mesh used is a lightweight (less than 50g/m2) monofilament prosthesis called Parietex TCM. The study tracks outcomes five years post-surgery to assess the impact of mesh on hernia development and patient well-being. Participants will be assessed five years after their colostomy surgery for the presence and timing of parastomal hernia. Additional evaluations include patient-reported pain, protrusion around the stoma, occlusion, incarceration, quality of life, satisfaction, and healthcare usage such as consultations, medications, treatments, rehabilitation, sick leave, and cost of care. These measures provide a comprehensive view of long-term patient outcomes and safety.
