Condition: Parastomal Hernia · Sponsor: The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University
\*\*Research Background\*\* Colostomy surgery is a common surgical procedure widely used for the treatment of various gastrointestinal diseases, including rectal cancer, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease. Although this surgery can significantly improve patients' quality of life and prognosis, the incidence of postoperative complications, particularly parastomal hernia (PSH), is relatively high. PSH refers to the formation of an abdominal wall hernia around the stoma, with an incidence rate that can reach up to 50%. PSH not only affects patients' quality of life but can also lead to pain, stoma dysfunction, and the need for reoperation, increasing medical costs and patient burden. Therefore, how to effectively prevent PSH has become an important topic in clinical research. \*\*Epidemiology of Parastomal Hernia\*\* The incidence of PSH varies across different studies, ranging from 10% to 50%. This variation may be due to differences in study design, patient characteristics, and surgical techniques. A systematic review and meta-analysis showed that the incidence of PSH differs significantly among different surgical techniques, with higher rates observed in traditional non-molding suturing techniques. Another large cohort study found that the incidence of PSH varies among different age groups and patients with different underlying diseases, suggesting that PSH occurrence may be influenced by multiple factors. \*\*Risk Factors for Parastomal Hernia\*\* 1. \*\*Patient Fa…
