Long-term outcomes after elective inguinal hernia mesh-repair in patients with inflammatory bowel disease
This study suggests that inguinal hernia mesh-repair is also safe among IBD patients regardless of subtype, surgical technique, or perianal fistulation. Similarly, recurrence risk was unaffected by these factors. Limited data prevented conclusions on intra-abdominal fistulising disease as a potential risk-factor for poor surgical outcomes.
