title: [Surgical treatment of large incisional hernia].
abstract: Treatment of large incisional hernia (LIH) is still a challenge to most of the abdominal wall surgeons. Mesh reinforcement is essential for treatment of LIH, component separation technique(CST) provides significant assistances for the close of abdominal wall defect. The use of mesh reinforcement with CST during LIH repair displayed the best results. Understanding and choosing the correct procedure is very important for LIH repair which significantly decreases both the recurrence rate and morbidity postoperatively after LIH repair.
