Abstract
The incidence of PHR nationwide is increasing and more than half of patients undergo primary repair. Although the surgical focus has moved toward prevention, parastomal hernia is a persistent complication of stoma creation. Further exploration is warranted to determine contributing factors to the observed increase in PHR and changes in surgical technique.
