Sequelae of hernia repair: What are the key issues? Since hernia repair is increasingly performed as day case surgery, general practitioners are becoming progressively involved in postoperative care. Early sequelae must be differentiated from late sequelae of hernia repair. Hematomas, seromas and acute pain are frequent early postoperative problems, while at a later stage recurrence and potentially chronifying pain are of importance. The focus of this review is on aftercare, frequent postoperative problems and their therapeutic options.

Department of Gastroenterological Surgery, Hyogo Medical University, Hyogo, Japan.
We aimed to develop an AI model that recognizes and displays loose connective tissue as a dissectable layer in real-time during gastrointestinal surgery and to evaluate its performance, including feasibility for clinical application. Training data were created under the supervision of gastrointestinal surgeons. Test images and videos were randomly sampled and model performance was evaluated visually by 10 external gastrointestinal surgeons.

Abdominal wall repair in adults with bladder exstrophy is challenging. We present a case of a 46-year-old woman with bladder exstrophy presenting with a large midline incisional hernia associated with a 13-cm hypoplasia of both pubic rami that precluded fixation of any abdominal mesh. A two-stage approach was adopted.
