The experience with 248 operations for postoperative hernias of the abdominal wall is analyzed. Defects in the aponeurosis in 182 patients with not great hernias were eliminated by plasty with adjacent tissues. In 66 patients with extensive, giant and recurrent hernias herniatomy with skin autografts was performed. Recurrences in the first group of patients were noted in 12% of cases, in the second group--in 4,3%. The autodermal reconstruction is thought by the authors to be a promising method to improve further results of the treatment of postoperative hernias and must be given deserving attention in restorative surgery.

Introduction: Giant inguinoscrotal hernias (GIH), defined as hernias extending below the inner thigh midpoint in a standing position, are rare and often seen in resource-limited settings due to delayed medical care. These hernias pose surgical challenges, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where standardized management protocols are lacking, and risks such as cardiorespiratory compromise are significant.
Case Presentation: A 55-year-old male presented with a large, irreducible right inguinoscrotal hernia of 1.

Background: Defect closure with mesh suture is a novel technique for hernia repair. Originally described as the construction of lightweight macroporous polypropylene mesh strips as a suture material, it is now available as an FDA-approved product. Mesh suture better distributes tensile forces and reduces fascial tearing compared to traditional suture but requires less implanted material and tissue dissection compared to planar mesh.

Ventral hernias pose a prevalent challenge in abdominal wall surgery, with ongoing advancements in repair techniques designed to enhance patient outcomes. This study evaluates the efficacy, safety, and socio-economic impact of Totally Extraperitoneal Sublay Repair (TES) versus Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh Repair (IPOM) for small to medium-sized ventral hernias, with a particular focus on postoperative quality of life and patient satisfaction. A retrospective cohort study was conducted, encompassing 125 patients who underwent ventral hernia repair between May 2018 and November 2023.

Incisional ventral hernia repair remains a challenging surgery for abdominal wall surgeons. We report the results at 48 months post-surgery regarding open ventral hernia repair (OVHR), analyzing the recurrence rate and incidence of chronic pain. This was a retrospective, observational study of 111 consecutive patients who underwent OVHR.

Purpose: Traumatic abdominal intercostal/flank hernias present a perplexing challenge for surgeons seeking to repair them. There has been a paucity of studies describing robotic repairs of such hernias. We aim to evaluate the effectiveness of the Robotic-assisted Extended Total Extraperitoneal/Transversus Abdominus Release (rETEP/TAR) method in repairing traumatic abdominal intercostal and flank hernias.
