title: [Use of "regeneration stimulator" in surgical treatment of postoperative ventral hernia].
abstract: During experimental hernioplasty with the application of the "Regeneration stimulator" in 38 dogs it was discovered that the rehabilitation period of the abdominal walls after the operation was considerably shorter. An experience with surgical treatment of 42 patients with postoperative ventral hernias is described. To remove the defect of the anterior abdominal wall by different intraoperative methods "the regeneration stimulator" was used in the zone of plasty. Recurrent hernias were noted in 1 of 42 patients. The method can be recommended for treatment of this category of patients.
