version2: Laparoscopic IPOM technique for DynaMesh® IPOM in 7 steps

Vorabtext zu den 7 Steps:

Step 1. Preparation of the patient/procedure
The following points should be considered during the preparation of the patient: Animation OP-Video
1.01. Possible epidural catheter for large hernias
1.02. Gastric tube – to avoid puncture of the stomach during air filling
1.03. Bladder catheter – safer pre-peritoneal preparation in the lower abdomen
1.04. Positioning of the patient – limited space with extended arm gruene_punkte
1.05 Sufficient coverage – Adequate placement of trocars (up into the flank), especially if large meshes are required. gruene_punkte
1.06 Marking of the hernia and the mesh (overlap of the defect and the original scar by at least 5 cm, better 7 cm) (in case of asymmetric hernias move the mesh and overlap far beyond the bones) gruene_punkte
