Summary
This study presents a laparoscopic IPOM-plus technique for spigelian hernia repair, involving muscle approximation. This approach demonstrated excellent outcomes with no complications, suggesting it may enhance spigelian hernia repair results.
Area of Science:
- Minimally Invasive Surgery
- Abdominal Wall Reconstruction
- Surgical Innovation
Background:
- Spigelian hernia is a rare condition, traditionally treated with open surgery.
- Laparoscopic techniques, often using intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM), are evolving.
- There is a growing trend towards primary defect closure in hernia repair.
