Long-term Follow-up of Incisional Hernia Repaired With Intraperitoneal Mesh

NCT00891254 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 80

Last updated 2012-10-31

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The intraperitoneal repair has been proven safe for the repair of incisional hernia and is accepted, together with the subfascial or retromuscular repair as the "gold-standard" for the repair of incisional hernia. However no studies have convincingly proven that this approach is better than the on-lay repair.

The authors believe that the intraperitoneal repair performs better than the on-lay repair for incisional hernia.
