Repair surgery for a hernia near an ostomy
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial is looking at people who have a parastomal hernia (a bulge near an ostomy) and need it repaired. It tests an endoscopic (small-camera) surgical approach called the ePauli repair to improve how the hernia is fixed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a parastomal hernia (a bulge near your stoma/ostomy).
- Your doctor has recommended that the hernia needs surgical repair.
- You are at least 18 years old.

This study tests a specific laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery to fix parastomal hernias — a bulge near your stoma. The goal is to repair the hernia safely and help you avoid more problems with your stoma pouch.
This trial tests whether sewing the belly lining in a special way during colostomy surgery can lower the chance of a hernia near the stoma. It may help you if you need a colostomy and are in generally good health.
This study tests a new way to create a stoma (an opening in the belly for waste) during laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. It compares two methods to see which one better prevents hernias (bulges) from forming next to the stoma.
This trial tests a pre-shaped, funnel-like mesh placed during colostomy surgery to prevent parastomal hernias (bulging around the stoma). If you are having a permanent terminal colostomy and are in reasonably good health, this study may help reduce your risk of a hernia.
This study is testing a new way to treat and improve life with a ventral hernia (a hernia in the belly area). It's for people with an incisional hernia or a parastomal hernia.
This trial tests two minimally invasive surgical methods for fixing a hernia near the belly button. It aims to find which approach works better and has fewer complications.
