The Treatment of Incisional Hernia [PDF]

open access: yesDeutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2018
A meta-analysis of studies from multiple countries has shown that the incidence of incisional hernia varies from 4% to 10% depending on the type of operation. No epidemiological surveys have been conducted so far. The worst possible complication of an incisional hernia if it is not treated surgically is incarceration.
