Simultaneous surgical operations and hernia repair
Abstract
The growing spread of combined pathology, especially among the elderly and geriatric population, requires updating of approaches to diagnosis and treatment. In particular, surgical practice has encountered high incidences of combined diseases, requiring operative treatment, in patients with variously localized hernias. In such cases the standard common approach is to treat in stages gradually eliminating certain diseases. But so far, there has been evidence of effective concurrent treatment of combined surgical pathology by conducting simultaneous operations. This review presents the studies of the direct results of simultaneous operations during variously localized hernia plastic repair in combination with other abdominal surgical pathology.
