Study Summary
Hernia formation at sites of ostomy closure is a common complication. The investigator believes that using evidence based hernia repair techniques as a preventive measure during closure of ostomies will reduce the incidence of hernia formation. In this trial, the investigator will pilot a novel technique of large pore monofilament polypropylene mesh reinforcement of the abdominal wall defects that remain after closure of an ileostomy to evaluate for safety and begin to evaluate the effectiveness compared to standard techniques.
Primary Outcome
Incidence of wound occurrences (defined as superficial surgical site infection \[s-SSI\], deep surgical site infection \[d-SSI\], organ space surgical site infection \[O-SSI\], dehiscence, and seroma formation) at 30 days, with particular attention to wound occurrences requiring procedural intervention, including but not limited to, operative debridement, radiographically guided drain placement, or excision of the mesh will be assessed.
