Emergency hernia repairs are associated with significantly higher morbidity and mortality compared with elective hernia surgery. In Finland, approximately 500 emergency groin hernia repairs and 600 ventral hernia repairs are performed annually, but treatment practices vary widely, and high-quality evidence is lacking. This prospective multicenter cohort study will evaluate outcomes of emergency groin and ventral hernia repairs in Finland. About 600 patients will be recruited over two years and followed for five years postoperatively. The study will collect standardized data on patient demographics, comorbidities, surgical technique, intraoperative findings, postoperative course, and long-term follow-up. Quality of life will be assessed with RAND-36, AAS, and PROMIS questionnaires. The primary endpoint is hernia recurrence within two years after surgery. Secondary outcomes include 30- and 90-day complications, infection rates, readmissions, recovery time, and quality of life at 1, 2, and 5 years. The results will provide robust evidence to guide clinical practice, optimize surgical techniques, and refine urgency classification and surgeon competence requirements for emergency hernia repair.

Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is the tendinopathy of the common extensor tendon. Although exact etiology remains unclear, it is believed to be caused by overuse. Even though, genetics factor related to tendinopathies were defined accompanying tendinopathies in patients with LE is yet to be studied. Madrid sonographic enthesitis index (MASEI) is an ultrasound based scoring system, developed for the evaluation of the enthesitis. Initially developed for ankylosing spondylitis, its usage has also become widespread in other musculoskeletal diseases. The aim of this study is to calculate the MASEI score in patients diagnosed with LE, and compare it to healthy volunteers.
