Background: Hereditary Multiple Osteochondromas (HMO), previously known as Multiple Hereditary Exostoses (MHE), is a genetic disorder characterized by the formation of multiple, benign, exostoses (osteochondromas) growing from the metaphyseal region of long bones as well as from the axial skeleton. Lesions originating from the lumbar spine region are rare, and are most common growing from the posterior element of the vertebrae. HMO associated osteochondromas are difficult to treat due to continuous and incontrollable growth of these lesions and a lifetime risk for malignant transformation.

This condition is typically associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis and is known as Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome or OHVIRA (Obstructed HemiVagina and Ipsilateral Renal Anomaly) syndrome. The primary symptoms include dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain, which usually manifest after menarche due to haematocolpos in the obstructed hemivagina.

Purpose: While research on inguinal hernias is well-documented, ventral/incisional hernias still require investigation. In India, opinions on laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) techniques are contested. The current consensus aims to standardize LVHR practice and identify gaps and unfulfilled demands that compromise patient safety and therapeutic outcomes.

Background: In recent years many new surgical techniques for minimally invasive treatment of ventral hernias have been developed and introduced. This review article presents these new minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as extended totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) repair, mini or less open sublay (MILOS), endoscopic-assisted linea alba reconstruction (ELAR), the ventral transabdominal preperitoneal patch (TAPP) technique, intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) plus and laparoscopic intracorporeal rectus aponeuroplasty (LIRA) and discusses recently published results.
Results: Modern minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of ventral hernias have the potential to reduce surgical site infections, lower postoperative pain and lead to a shorter duration of hospital stay compared to the classical open hernia repair; however, especially techniques with a retromuscular mesh position are technically challenging due to the preparation in a limited space and difficult to perform endoscopic sutures and necessitate detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the abdominal wall.
