Résumé

To assess the long-term cosmetic outcomes of the "slit-slide procedure", designed to provide a more natural appearance for umbilical hernia repair, as perceived by the patients and their parents. A total of 149 patients with umbilical hernia underwent the slit-slide procedure at our hospital. The slit-slide procedure allows for the creation of an umbilicus with a more natural and integrated appearance. The patient satisfaction survey questionnaire was mailed to the families (n = 139), and there were 74 (53.2%) respondents. A questionnaire survey on postoperative appearance was also distributed to pediatric surgeons. The median age at the time of operation was 2.5 years (range, 2 months to 14 years) and the average median age at the time of answering the questionnaire was 6.25 years old (range, 2.5-14.8 years). The average median period of observation was 3.2 years (range, 4 months to 8.97 years). Most patients (89.2%) and parents (93.2%) were satisfied with the appearance of the umbilicus. Twenty-seven patients reported improved satisfaction after surgery (36.2%). Surgeons tended to score the elongated-oval shape highly; however, there was no difference in satisfaction among the shapes. The slit-slide procedure is not only effective and safe, but it achieves a satisfactory aesthetic outcome.
