title: [Non-tension abdominal wall plasty by incarcerated postoperative ventral hernias].
abstract: Treatment results of 31 patients with incarcerated postoperative ventral hernias were analyzed. Mesh hernia repair was used in all cases. Signs of hernia incarceration or intestinal obstructions were absolute indications for surgical treatment. Irreducible postoperative ventral hernia was considered as a relative indication for the operation. 16 (51,6%) operated patients had complications: 14 (45,2%) patients had seromas of the operative wound, in 11 of them seroma persisted more then 14 days. Seromas were punctured and evacuated in all of them, no suppurations were registered. 1 (3,2%) patient developed pneumonia postoperatively. Lethal pulmonary embolism occurred in one (3,2%) female patient on the first postoperative day. No hernia recurrences were registered.
