Parastomal hernia repair outcomes in relation to stoma site with diisocyanate cross-linked acellular porcine dermal collagen mesh.
(Springer, 2011-08)Biologic meshes are increasingly used in parastomal hernia repair. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of diisocyanate cross-linked acellular porcine dermal collagen mesh for parastomal hernia repair, with particular ... -
Exfoliated colonocyte DNA levels and clinical features in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer: a cohort study in patients referred for investigation.
(Wiley, 2012-03)Selection of patients for investigation of suspected colorectal cancer is difficult. One possible improvement may be to measure DNA isolated from exfoliated cells collected from the rectum. -
A single-centre experience of chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer: is there potential for nonoperative management?
(Wiley, 2012-05)The aim of the study was to assess the outcome of patients who received chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for locally advanced rectal cancer, specifically those with complete clinical response (CCR) and who were then managed ... -
Collagen implants in hernia repair.
(Taylor & Francis, 2011) -
Short-term outcomes of the prone perineal approach for extra-levator abdomino-perineal excision (elAPE).
(Elsevier, 2012-12)Many studies report that low rectal cancer treated with abdomino-perineal excision (APE) have higher rates of CRM involvement with associated local recurrence and worse survival when compared to low anterior resection. We ... -
Biological meshes: a review of their use in abdominal wall hernia repairs.
(Elsevier, 2012-06)Biological meshes are mostly used in infected fields within complex abdominal wall hernia repairs. There is no consensus, however, on the most appropriate material to be used in a given situation. -
Supplemental cross-linking in tissue-based surgical implants for abdominal wall repair.
(Elsevier, 2012)There are a number of commercially available tissue-based surgical implants for use in repairing abdominal wall defects. The role and effect of supplemental cross-linking present in some of these implants has been questioned ... -
The role of biologic meshes in abdominal wall reconstruction.
(Wiley, 2012-12)There are unacceptably high rates of recurrence following surgery for incision hernia repair using suture repair techniques in isolation. As the reconstruction of abdominal walls has expanded with complex surgery, the ... -
Biologic meshes in perineal reconstruction following extra-levator abdominoperineal excision (elAPE).
(Wiley, 2012-12)Recent improvements in the outcome for low rectal cancer have focused on the reconstruction of the perineal defect following greater acceptance of the need for a wider perineal excision encompassing the levator ani complex. ... -

(Wiley, 2012-12) -
