Outcomes of Long‐Term Absorbable Mesh Use for Ventral Hernia Repair in Immunosuppressed Patients

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Immunosuppressed patients are more at risk of perioperative infections. In case of ventral hernia repair, the use of a long‐term absorbable mesh could potentially decrease the infectious risk in these patients. This study aimed to assess the short‐ and mid‐term outcomes of ventral hernia repair with long‐term absorbable mesh in immunosuppressed and non‐
