Laparoscopic abdominal incisional hernioplasty: principles, technique and complications.
Repair of incisional herniae by direct approximation of the edges is associated with high incidence of recurrence. Tension free repair with prosthetic material was an advance in decreasing the incidence of recurrence. Repair with prosthetic material, to be successful, re qui res extensive dissection and its associated complications. Advances in laparoscopy along with the improvements in prosthetic materials has opened up opportunity for further decreasing the incidence of recurrence with minimal dissection.
