The lateral paramedian: revisiting a forgotten incision.
American Surgeon 2009 April

Presently, there is a lack of general consensus among surgeons in regard to the optimal treatment. The midline incision is the most common used abdominal incision and it carries a high incidence of incisional hernia (up to 15%).
