Parastomal hernia after robot-assisted cystectomy and ileum conduit: incidence, risk or protective factors and outcomes of minimal-invasive hernia repair-systematic review.
Synthesis in Journal of robotic surgery, 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsIncidence of and risk factors for parastomal hernia after robot-assisted (RA) cystectomy with ileum conduit (IC) are not well established. The aims of this systematic review were to summarize the literature (1) on the incidence of parastomal hernia after RA cystectomy and IC reconstruction; (2) on risk or protective factors associated with the development of parastomal hernias after RA cystectomy and IC reconstruction; and (3) on outcomes of minimal invasive parastomal hernia repair in patients with IC.
methodswe conducted literature searches in Medline, EMBASE, and CINHAL up to April 2025 without language restriction. Two independent assessors evaluated eligibility and quality of the included study. Due to high heterogeneity, meta-analysis was not attempted.
resultsout of 368 records, 11 and 2 papers provided information on the incidence of parastomal hernia and on risk factors, respectively. For the outcome of minimal invasive IC hernia repair, 7 studies were included. Most studied presented high risk of bias and the incidence rate varied widely across studies. Similar findings were observed for hernia recurrence after minimal invasive hernia repair.
conclusionA relevant proportion of patients may experience parastomal hernia of IC after RA-cystectomy, however incidence figures varied widely. Information on factors influencing the development of parastomal hernia after RA cystectomy is essentially lacking. Finally, the evidence on the outcome of minimal invasive hernia repair in IC patients is very limited both in terms of quantity and of quality. There is urgent need to address the knowledge gaps detected by this systematic review. Cooperation to achieve prospective multicentre designs with adequate sample size and systematic follow-up methods would be crucial factors to generate the high-quality data required to develop evidence-based strategies to prevent parastomal hernias.
