Post herniorrhaphy pain syndrome, or inguinodynia is pain or discomfort lasting greater than 3 months after surgery of inguinal hernia. Randomized trials of laparoscopic vs open inguinal hernia repair have demonstrated similar recurrence rates with the use of mesh and have identified that chronic groin pain (>10%) surpasses recurrence (<2%) and is an important measure of success.
[1] [2] Neointimal hyperplasia is the major cause of restenosis after percutaneous coronary interventions such as stenting or angioplasty. [1] The term neointima is used because the cells in the hyperplastic regions of the vascular wall have histological characteristics of both intima and normal artery cells.
Endoscopic stenting is a medical procedure by which a stent, a hollow device designed to prevent constriction or collapse of a tubular organ, is inserted by endoscopy.They are usually inserted when a disease process has led to narrowing or obstruction of the organ in question, such as the esophagus or the colon.
Laparoscopic surgery generally has less pain following the procedure. [1] [9] In 2015 inguinal, femoral and abdominal hernias affected about 18.5 million people. [10] About 27% of males and 3% of females develop a groin hernia at some time in their life. [1] Groin hernias occur most often before the age of one and after the age of fifty. [2]
After the balloon inflation/deflation or the deposition of the stent, the placement device/deflated balloon are removed leaving the stent in place. [21] [22] The interventional cardiologist decides how to treat the blockage in the best way during the PCI/stent placement, based on real-time data.
Inguinal hernia surgery is an operation to repair a weakness in the abdominal wall that abnormally allows abdominal contents to slip into a narrow tube called the inguinal canal in the groin region. There are two different clusters of hernia: groin and ventral (abdominal) wall. Groin hernia includes femoral, obturator, and inguinal. [1]
The shunt is completed by placing a special mesh tube known as a stent or endograft to maintain the tract between the higher-pressure portal vein and the lower-pressure hepatic vein. After the procedure, fluoroscopic images are made to show placement. Pressure in the portal vein and inferior vena cava are often measured. [citation needed]
Post-vasectomy pain syndrome (PVPS) is a chronic and sometimes debilitating genital pain condition that may develop immediately or several years after vasectomy. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Because this condition is a syndrome , there is no single treatment method, therefore efforts focus on mitigating/relieving the individual patient's specific pain.
