Parastomal hernia prevention and repair in Australasia: A binational CSSANZ survey of contemporary practice
PSH prevention and repair across Australasia is marked by wide variability, low uptake of prophylactic mesh, and inconsistent technique selection. Operative approach strongly influenced repair configuration, and seniority appeared to drive emergency decision-making. Addressing PSH represents an important opportunity to reduce treatment-related morbidity in patients with pelvic malignancies undergoing stoma formation.
