Laparoscopic Sugarbaker Repair of Parastomal Hernia with Gastric Incarceration: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionParastomal hernia is a common complication of stoma creation; however, gastric involvement is extremely rare, with only approximately 2 dozen cases reported. Gastric incarceration in a parastomal hernia can cause severe complications, including gastric outlet obstruction and ischemia, and requires timely surgical management. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe the case of a 57-year-old obese female who underwent transverse colostomy for ischemic colitis and presented with upper abdominal pain and vomiting. She had a history of Buerger's disease, bilateral lower limb amputation, central adrenal insufficiency, and recurrent colonic stoma prolapse requiring colonic resections. CT revealed gastric outlet obstruction due to stomach incarceration within the parastomal hernia sac. After stabilization of her general condition and nasogastric decompression, she underwent laparoscopic repair 18 days after admission. Intraoperatively, the stomach was incarcerated by traction on the gastrocolic ligament. The gastrocolic ligament was divided, and the stomach was dissected from the mesocolon to maintain a safe distance from the stoma and prevent further traction by the colon. The hernia defect was closed using barbed sutures, followed by laparoscopic Sugarbaker repair with mesh placement. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and no recurrence was observed at 10 months of follow-up.
conclusionsWe present a rare case of parastomal hernia with gastric incarceration that was successfully managed using laparoscopic Sugarbaker repair. Sufficient gastric mobilization, including division of the gastrocolic ligament and dissection from the mesocolon, is essential to ensure mesh coverage of the hernia defect and minimize recurrence risk.
