Incisional hernias are a relatively common occurrence after abdominal operations, having been reported to occur in 2% to 11% of all patients undergoing such procedures. Although many hernias become manifest early, others may not be noted until many years after the index procedure. Predisposing factors for incisional hernia have been well described, and

Hernias: inguinal and incisional
The Lancet, 2003In the past decade hernia surgery has been challenged by two new technologies: by laparoscopy, which has attempted to change the traditional open operative techniques, and by prosthetic mesh, which has achieved much lower recurrence rates. The demand by health care providers for increasingly efficient and cost-effective surgery has resulted in ...

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2013
To compare laparoscopic and open repair of incisional hernia in terms of complications and failure rates.Between June 2005 and April 2012, 252 patients underwent incisional hernia repair. Of these, 126 underwent laparoscopic and 126 open repair. The median follow-up was 38.7 months.Baseline characteristics [age, body mass index, American Society of ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2003
Incisional ventral hernias are a common problem encountered by surgeons, with over 100,000 repairs being performed annually in the United States. Although many predisposing factors for incisional ventral hernia are patient-related, some factors such as type of primary closure and materials used may reduce the overall incidence of incisional ventral ...

We have presented a study of 125 patients treated for incisional hernia. This complication occurred more frequently in women (81%), and gynecologic and obstetric procedures were responsible for 58%. The method of surgical repair in all cases was peritoneal-aponeurotic transposition. The 5-year recurrence rate was less than 3%.

Incisional and umbilical hernias
The American Journal of Surgery, 1956N important problem in abdomina1 surgery A is the prevention and repair of incisiona and umbilical’ hernias. Standard textbooks advise overIapping the peritoneum and the fascia, and using catgut or cotton or siIk in incisional and umbiIica1 hernias, according to the technic described by Mayo in 1899.’ Later articles have described many other methods ...

With a long-term incidence of 10-20%, incisional hernias remain one of the most common surgical complications. Beside technical causes, wound-healing problems are increasingly being discussed. Conventional suture repair shows disappointing results and should be used only in selected cases.

Incisional hernias are a common complication following abdominal surgery. Surgical treatment as a whole has the disadvantage of having a high recurrence rate. Far better results are obtained by tension-free closure, if necessary backed up by a synthetic prosthesis (PTFE, polypropylene). However, even then, a recurrence rate of about 10% can be expected.
