[Long-term results of giant hernias treatment after obstetric and gynecologic surgeries]

The author studied in 311 women long-term results of treatment of giant hernias, that were caused by urgent (52.4%) and planned (47.6%) obstetric and gynecologic operations. The original lavsan prostheses were used to cover the suprapubic abdominal wall defects that provided good long-term results with no cases of relapses, good functional and cosmetic effects, and complete restoration of capacity for work.
