The Danish Ventral Hernia Database (DVHD) registers 37 different perioperative parameters. The aim of present study is to use large-scale data from DVHD to uncover risk factors for readmission, reoperation (any indication), death and reoperation for recurrence after incisional hernia repair.
All principal incisional hernias registered in the Danish Ventral Hernia Database are included in the study. The included patients will be followed in up to 4 years in order to identify correlation between technical aspects of the hernia repair and postoperative morbidity.
