Measurements of abdominal wall defect and hernia sac volume for the treatment of incisional hernia: Application of the ultrasonic volume auto-scan in 50 cases

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2023
Purpose: Abdominal incisional hernia is one of the most common complications after surgery. The preoperative evaluation of the area of abdominal wall defect and the hernia sac volume(HCV) is very important for the selection of patch size and incisional ...

A double blind randomized controlled trial comparing primary suture closure with mesh augmented closure to reduce incisional hernia incidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Incisional hernia is the most frequently seen long term complication after laparotomy causing much morbidity and even mortality. The overall incidence remains 11-20%, despite studies attempting to optimize closing techniques.

The Management of Incisional Hernia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2006
Many thousand laparotomy incisions are created each year and the failure rate for closure of these abdominal wounds is between 10–15%, creating a large problem of incisional hernia. In the past many of these hernias have been neglected and treated with abdominal trusses or inadequately managed with high failure rates.
