Robotic parastomal hernia repair with reinforced tissue matrix; lessons learned from our 74-patient cohort.
Article in Journal of abdominal wall surgery : JAWS, 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
Introduction: Patients with a stoma often develop a parastomal hernia (PSH). Treatment of PSH is challenging and results are often disappointing, with many patients developing multiple recurrences. In this study we aim to describe our experiences with the treatment of PSH using our robot assisted operative technique, by exploring patient history and PSH repair outcome and giving in-depth description of failures and successes. We try to identify and better understand predicting factors for failure, postoperative complications and recurrence in an attempt to make a small step towards a more patient-tailored approach to parastomal hernia repair. Methods: All (robotic) PSH repairs performed in our centre from March 2022 to January 2026 were registered in a prospectively collected database. Results: In this period 74 patients underwent a robotic PSH repair. Almost half of these patients (46%) had undergone one or more previous attempts to PSH repair. Nine recurrences occurred (12%). Complication rate was 31% (9.5% severe complications). IPOM mesh Conclusion: This study highlights the complexity for PSH repair, becoming increasingly more complex in recurrent cases. More (comparative) research is needed to establish a more patient-tailored approach to PSH repair.
