Short-term Outcome After Ventral Hernia Repair

Overview

Hernia repair in sublay technique is widely accepted for ventral hernias, as it appears to be advantageous in terms of complication and recurrence rates. Recently, self-gripping meshes are increasingly used for hernia repair with retromuscular mesh positioning. However, real-life data on the safe use in that specific indication are still lacking. Therefore, this study evaluated short-term postoperative outcome of self-gripping versus conventional non-self-gripping meshes in sublay hernia repair.
