Diastasis recti is associated with incisional hernia after midline abdominal surgery
PurposeIncisional hernia occurs in up to 20% of patients after abdominal surgery and is most common after vertical midline incisions. Diastasis recti...

Incisional hernia rates following midline laparotomy in the obese patient: a retrospective review
PurposeIncisional hernia is the most common complication of midline laparotomy. Although obesity is a known risk factor, the incidence of hernia...

Laparoscopic vs open repair for primary midline ventral hernia: a prospective cohort study
BackgroundThe optimal operative treatment for umbilical and epigastric hernia, i.e., primary midline ventral hernia (PMVH), is debatable. The most...
-
Randomized controlled trial comparing cosmetic results of midline incision versus off-midline incision for specimen extraction in laparoscopic colectomy
PurposeA notable advantage of laparoscopic colorectal surgery is that only a small incision at the extraction site is necessary, which is considered...
-
Obesity increases the surgical complexity and risk of recurrence after midline primary ventral hernia repair: results on 2307 patients from the French Society of hernia surgery (SFCP-CH) registry database
PurposeObesity is a known risk factor of recurrence after hernia surgery, but available data often concern pooled cases of primary and incisional...

Concomitant midline ventral and inguinal hernia repair: can we create an algorithmic approach?
PurposeInternational guidelines exist for surgical treatment of either ventral or inguinal hernias repair (VHR; IHR). However, approach for managing...

The effect on incisional hernia of absorbable barbed suture for midline fascial closure in minimally invasive surgery for colorectal and gastric cancers: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
BackgroundIncisional hernia following abdominal surgery is a frequent complication of midline laparotomy. This complication is strongly associated...
-
Short-term outcomes of a multicentre prospective study using a “visible” polyvinylidene fluoride onlay mesh for the prevention of midline incisional hernia
IntroductionProphylactic meshes in high-risk patients prevent incisional hernias, although there are still some concerns about the best layer to...

Severe rectus diastasis with midline hernia associated in males: high recurrence in mid-term follow-up of minimally invasive surgical technique
ProposeThe present study aimed to assess clinical results, in terms of postoperative pain, functional recovery and recurrence rates of FESSA (Full...
-
A postoperative body weight increase is a novel risk factor for incisional hernia of midline abdominal incision after elective gastroenterological surgery
PurposeMidline abdominal incisions (MAIs) are widely used in both open and minimally invasive surgery. Incisional hernia (IH) accounts for most...
-
Ventral hernia repair in India: a Delphi consensus
PurposeWhile research on inguinal hernias is well-documented, ventral/incisional hernias still require investigation. In India, opinions on...
-
Abdominal wound dehiscence and incisional hernia prevention in midline laparotomy: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
BackgroundIncisional hernia (IH) is the main complication after laparotomy. In an attempt to reduce this complication, mesh techniques and studies in...
-
Comparison of outcomes of the extended-view totally extraperitoneal rives-stoppa (eTEP-RS) and the intraperitoneal onlay mesh with defect closure (IPOM-plus) for W1-W2 midline incisional hernia repair—a single-center experience
BackgroundThe eTEP technique is a new approach that has recently gained popularity in abdominal wall hernia surgery. This study aimed to compare the...
-
Prophylactic mesh reinforcement for midline incisional hernia prevention: systematic review and updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
BackgroundIncisional hernia (IH) is a common complication after abdominal surgery. Prevention of IH is matter of intense research. Prophylactic mesh...
-
Impact of non-muscle cutting periumbilical transverse incision on the risk of incisional hernia as compared to midline incision during laparoscopic colon cancer surgery: a study protocol for a multi-centre randomised controlled trial
BackgroundMinimally invasive surgery has become popular as a surgical approach for colorectal cancer because it has fewer complications related to...
-
Inguinal Hernias After Lower Midline Incision Surgery: Clues for Considering Inguinal Hernia in Females and Males: a Literature Review
Lower midline incision surgery (LMIS) in males is a well-known factor for the development of inguinal hernia (IH). However, few reports exist on IH...
-
Robotic-assisted repair of incisional hernia—early experiences of a university robotic hernia program and comparison with open and minimally invasive sublay technique (eMILOS)
PurposeWith robotic surgical devices, an innovative tool has stepped into the arena of minimally invasive hernia surgery. It combines the advantages...
-
Robotic repair of non-midline hernias
Non-midline abdominal wall hernias present unique anatomic challenges, making repair more complex. The constraints of the peritoneal cavity, pelvis,...
-
A comparison of robotic enhanced-view totally extraperitoneal approach versus trans-abdominal retro-muscular approach for midline ventral hernias
BackgroundThe evolution of midline ventral hernia repair has progressed from the open Rives-Stoppa technique to minimally invasive robotic...
