NCT ID NCT04916067

First seen Mar 13, 2026 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study tested whether placing a special mesh during surgery to close an ileostomy (a temporary stoma) could prevent hernias from forming later. It included 8 adults with inflammatory bowel disease. The study was stopped early, so results are limited, but the goal was to see if the mesh was safe and effective compared to standard closure.
