Introduction: Incisional hernia (IH) is a very common surgical procedure. Registries provide real world data. The objective is to analyze the open and minimally invasive (MIS) sublay technique (with or without associated components separation [CS]) in IH cases from the EVEREG registry and to evaluate the evolution over time of the techniques.
Methods: All patients in EVEREG from July 2012 to December 2021 were included. The characteristics of the patients, IH, surgical technique, complications and mortality in the first 30 days were collected. We analyzed Group 1 (open sublay vs MIS sublay, without CS), Group 2 (open sublay vs MIS sublay, with CS) and Group 3 where the evolution of open and MIS techniques was evaluated over time.
Results: 4867 IH were repaired using a sublay technique. Group 1: 3739 (77%) open surgery, mostly midline hernias combined (P = .016) and 55 (1%) MIS, mostly lateral hernias (LH) (P = .000). Group 2: 1049 (21.5%) open surgery and 24 (0.5%) MIS. A meaningful difference (P = .006) was observed in terms of transverse diameters (5.9 (SD 2.1) cm for the MIS technique and 10.11 (SD 4.8) for the open technique). The LH MIS associated more CS (P = .002). There was an increase in the use of the sublay technique over time (with or without CS).
Conclusion: Increased use of the sublay technique (open and MIS) over time. For some type of hernia (LH) the MIS sublay technique with associated CS may have represented an overtreatment.

The intrapelvic approach to the acetabulum.

The today well accepted intrapelvic approach for acetabular and pelvic ring injury fixation was first described by Hirvensalo and Lindahl in 1993 followed by a more detailed description by Cole and Bolhofner in 1994. Compared to the well-known ilioinguinal approach, described by Letournel, this approach allows an intrapelvic view to the medial acetabulum, while using the ilioinguinal approach a more superior, extrapelvic view, is dissected to the area of the acetabulum. Several names have been used to describe the new intrapelvic approach with increasing usage, mainly ilio-anterior approach, extended Pfannenstiel approach, Stoppa-approach, Rives-Stoppa approach, modified Stoppa approach and recently anterior intrapelvic approach.

A planned ventral hernia after open abdomen therapy is a rare hernia entity because the fascial closure rate has been increased due to established concepts for open abdominal treatment. Nevertheless, fascial closure is not always successful, and a planned ventral hernia has to be treated later. Preoperative optimisation and planning are essential for such challenging abdominal wall repairs.

Purpose: To determine whether periprosthetic drain insertion for hernioplasty using sublay mesh augmentation influences retromuscular fluid collections (RFC) and the clinical course.
Methods: Forty-two patients with open repair of midline hernias (M2-4, W1, European Hernia Society classification) were allocated to groups with or without retromuscular drains. Subcutaneous drainages were used in both groups to avoid confounding from surgical site occurrences due to superficial, subcutaneous fluid collections.

Purpose: Incisional hernias (IH) after kidney transplantation (KTx) can cause significant morbidity in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). We aimed to report the outcomes of surgical repair of IH in KTR from our centre.
Methods: We retrospectively analysed all the IH repairs in KTR from May 2018 to May 2023.
