Stratification of surgical site infection by operative factors and comparison of infection rates after hernia repair [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: The National Healthcare Safety Network does not risk adjust surgical site infection (SSI) rates after hernia repair by operative factors. We investigated whether operative factors are associated with risk of SSI after hernia repair.

Clinical study of mesh repair in ventral hernia with comorbidities (diabetes mellitus and/or obesity and/or hypothyroidism) in a tertiary care hospital

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Ventral hernias comprise the second-most common hernia presentation, or 21–35% of all hernia types in the surgical world. Ventral hernias include incisional, umbilical, epigastric, and spigelian hernias, among others.
