Background: Isolated complex perianal fistulas, without luminal evidence of inflammatory bowel disease in the gastrointestinal tract, pose diagnostic and treatment dilemmas for gastroenterologists and colorectal surgeons.

Purpose: Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) frequently undergo multiple abdominal operations, which increase the risk of incisional hernia repair (IHR) and associated mesh-related complications. Patients with intra-abdominal fistulizing CD (FCD) may be more susceptible to mesh-related complications than patients with non-fistulizing CD (non-FCD). The primary objective was to evaluate the risk of reoperation due to mesh-related complications after IHR in patients with FCD and non-FCD.
