[The method of treatment choice for the abdominal wall hernia]
Abstract:
Experience of treatment of 975 patients with postoperative and recurrent abdominal wall hernia (AWH) and of 1473 patients with inguinal hernia was summarized. Intraoperative classification of Shevrel and Rets for AWH and of Gilbert and Rutkov for inguinal hernia were applied. The conventional methods of plasty, using local tissues, were performed up to 1998 in 648 patients with AWH and in 983--with inguinal hernia. Synthetic implants were used since 1999 in 327 patients with AWH and in 181--with inguinal hernia. In application of conventional methods recurrency had occurred after plasty for AWH in 26.6% and for inguinal hernia--in 5.8% of observations; hernial recurrency was not noted after usage of the modern plasty methods.
