Giant ventral hernias, often exceeding 10 cm, can complicate abdominal surgery. Low-tension mesh repair, particularly the sublay method, effectively reduces complications and recurrence rates in these complex cases.

Area of Science:

  • Abdominal Surgery
  • Hernia Repair
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Ventral hernia is a frequent complication following abdominal surgery, with reported incidences reaching up to 20%.
  • Giant ventral hernias, defined by a neck width greater than 10 cm, pose unique surgical challenges.
  • Loss of abdominal domain is a significant risk associated with large hernias, potentially leading to postoperative complications.
