Özet

Aim: This prospective study was conducted to analyze the incidence of emergency surgery in anterior abdominal wall hernias (AWH). Material and Methods: A total of 659 patients with anterior AWH were examined. Patients with anterior AWH who underwent elective or emergency surgery were included in the study. In this study, groin and non-groin hernias constitute anterior AWHs. Gender, age, anesthesia and repair methods, elective and emergency surgery, hernia types, side of groin hernias, recurrent or primary hernias were determined and recorded. Emergency surgery incidences of hernias were evaluated in terms of gender, age, hernia types, groin hernia sides, primary or recurrent hernias.Results: Emergency surgery was performed in 64 patients (9.7%). The incidence of emergency surgery was found to be higher in females. In anterior AWHs, the emergency surgery incidence was found to be higher in non-groin hernias than in groin hernias (P<0.001). The emergency surgery incidence was highest in femoral hernias among groin hernias and incisional hernias in non-groin hernias. In terms of primary and recurrent cases, the emergency surgery incidence was significantly higher in recurrent cases (P<0.001). However, when the emergency surgical incidence of all anterior AWHs such as inguinal, femoral, incisional, umbilical and epigastric hernias in the study were compared, no significant difference was found among them. Discussion: Emergency surgery incidence was found to be higher in females and in recurrent cases. However, there was no significant difference in the incidence of emergency surgery among all anterior AWH types.
