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

Prevention of incisional hernia with prophylactic onlay and sublay mesh reinforcement vs. primary suture only in midline laparotomies (PRIMA):long-term outcomes of a multicentre, double-blind, randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background: Incisional hernia occurs approximately in 40% of high-risk patients after midline laparotomy. Prophylactic mesh placement has shown promising results, but long-term outcomes are needed.

Linea alba 3D morphometric variability by CT scan exploration [PDF]
Hernia, 2024, 28 (2), pp.485-494Purpose: The width of the Linea alba, which is often gauged by inter-rectus distance, is a key risk factor for incisional hernia and recurrence. Previous studies provided limited descriptions with no consideration for width, location variability, or curvature.

Crossover from Reptation to Rouse dynamics in the Extended Rubinstein-Duke Model [PDF]
, 2008 The competition between reptation and Rouse Dynamics is incorporated in the Rubinstein-Duke model for polymer motion by extending it with sideways motions, which cross barriers and create or annihilate hernias. Using the Density-Matrix Renormalization-Group Method as solver of the Master Equation, the renewal time and the diffusion coefficient are ...

Prophylactic retrorectus mesh versus no mesh in midline emergency laparotomy closure for prevention of incisional hernia (PREEMER) : study protocol for a multicentre, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial [PDF]
, 2022 Background: Despite the fact that emergency midline laparotomy is a risk factor for an incisional hernia, active research on hernia prevention in emergency settings is lacking.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.We retrospectively compared intracorporeal and extracorporeal anastomosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer in 46 institutions by using propensity‐score matching. Intracorporeal anastomosis showed advantages over extracorporeal anastomosis in terms of blood loss, intraoperative vascular injury, bowel recovery, and length of
