This is the first report on synthetic mesh migration following obturator hernia repair. Obturator hernias have a low incidence--with fewer than 700 published case studies to date--usually occur in elderly women and are difficult to diagnose. Since 1976, there have been no more than 29 reported cases in which synthetic materials were used in obturator hernia repair. Thus, information relevant to the surgical repair of this type of hernia is based on small numbers only. The use of synthetic mesh for the repair of obturator hernias is a recent development, and to date no complications have been reported with this type of repair. We report here on the outcome of a patient with mesh migration after obturator hernia repair. This report provides a short overview of mesh migration as a complication following the use of synthetic grafts for surgical repair.
这是关于闭孔疝修补术后合成补片移位的首例报告。闭孔疝发病率较低——迄今为止发表的病例研究少于700例——通常发生于老年女性，且难以诊断。自1976年以来，使用合成材料进行闭孔疝修补的报告病例不超过29例。因此，有关此类疝手术修补的信息仅基于少量病例。使用合成补片修复闭孔疝是一项新进展，迄今为止尚未有此类修补出现并发症的报告。我们在此报告一例闭孔疝修补术后补片移位患者的情况。本报告简要概述了使用合成移植物进行手术修补后补片移位这一并发症。
