title: [Treatment of giant postoperative hernias].
abstract: Modified hernial ring plasty leading to significant improvement of treatment result was used in 48 patients. Lethality was 2.1%, suppuration of the postoperative wound was seen in 16.6% patients. There was the relapse (in 3-5 years) in 9% patients. Positive result of the above method compared with other Sapezhko's plasty modifications is explained by good blood supply in sutured tissues due to absence of their excessive tension, by location of the sutures between peritoneal layers and contact of similar tissues as a result of tamponade of space between displaced flaps of scar tissues and internal sutures with duplication of fibrous tissue layer.
