Journal ArticleDOI
Transumbilical gelport access technique for performing single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS)
TL;DR: An access technique utilizing existing instrumentation including a Gelport and wound retractor that is reliable and easy is described that has been used successfully at this institution for a number of single incision laparoscopic procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Management of complex abdominal wall defects using acellular porcine dermal collagen.
Luis Felipe Chavarriaga,Edward Lin,Albert Losken,Michael W. Cook,Louis O. Jeansonne,Brent C. White,John F. Sweeney,John R. Galloway,S. Scott Davis +8 more
TL;DR: Acellular porcine dermal collagen has the potential for reconstruction of abdominal wall defects with postoperative wound occurrences comparable with other biologic materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ten-year follow-up of laparoscopic Heller myotomy for achalasia shows durability
Louis O. Jeansonne,Brent C. White,Kelly E. Pilger,Matthew D. Shane,Stanley Zagorski,S. Scott Davis,John G. Hunter,Edward Lin,C. Daniel Smith +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that the efficacy of LHM is sustained at 10-year follow-up, and most patients who underwent LHM with partial fundoplication reported satisfaction 10 years after the operation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do recurrences after paraesophageal hernia repair matter? : Ten-year follow-up after laparoscopic repair
Brent C. White,Louis O. Jeansonne,Craig B. Morgenthal,Stanley Zagorski,S. Scott Davis,C. D. Smith,Edward Lin +6 more
TL;DR: Despite a hiatal hernia recurrence rate of 32% 10 years after surgery, laparoscopic PEH was a successful procedure in the majority of patients; most remained symptomatically improved and required no further intervention 10 yearsAfter surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal primary tissue collagen composition in the skin of recurrent incisional hernia patients.
Brent C. White,Charles Osier,Nana Gletsu,Louis O. Jeansonne,Mercedeh Baghai,Melanie A. Sherman,C. Daniel Smith,Bruce J. Ramshaw,Edward Lin +8 more
TL;DR: Lower collagen I/III ratios within the skin of patients with recurrent hernias not involved with scar or healing tissue suggest an underlying collagen composition defect, in addition to abnormal scar formation, likely plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of recurrent incisional hernia.
