- W4375866929 abstract "Abstract Aim Adult umbilical hernia accounts for between 3% and 14% of abdominal wall hernias, second only to inguinal hernias in frequency. The current prevalence of umbilical hernias in Africa is currently unknown, but it is estimated that about 50,000 patients die each year in Africa as a result of umbilical hernias. We describe below the number of interventions performed in 2022 by European aid workers in a third level Hospital in Tanzania using local anesthesia and the available material. Material and Methods We performed a retrospective observational study of the number of umbilical hernias operated in a Third level Hospital in Tanzania Results Throughout 2022, 2818 surgical interventions were performed in men and women by european aid workers: 114 interventions (4.04%) were umbilical hernia repairs. The age range of the operated patients was 12–18 years. No mesh was used in any case. The techniques used consisted of edge-to-edge closure. Patients were discharged after 24–48 hours without complications and no follow-up was obtained due to the fact that it was a rural hospital. Conclusions Umbilical hernia repair with mesh is the gold standard of treatment in our environment, however its practice in collaborative projects of this type requires a thorough knowledge of non-prosthetic repair options due to the scarcity of material." @default.
