Abstract
This is the first multi-institutional report of parastomal hernia repair using prospective data complete with operative details. Parastomal hernia repair remains a difficult operation without a clear best practice. Multiple factors appear to influence operative approach. Surgical treatment may improve quality of life at 6 to 12 months postoperatively.
