Controversies and Techniques in the Repair of Abdominal Wall Hernias.
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2019 April
Abdominal wall hernia repair is one of the most common operations done by general surgeons today. Patients with incisional hernias can be extremely challenging to manage due to a number of factors that include obesity, prior hernia repairs, previous mesh placement, loss of domain, and other variables. The approach to patients with incisional hernias has evolved considerably over the last 20 years due to both advances in mesh technology and surgical approaches. Key factors in a successful outcome include modification of risk factors prior to surgery such as smoking cessation and weight reduction, selection of mesh appropriate to the hernia type and planned location of the mesh, and broad overlap of mesh beyond the margins of the hernia defect. Newer techniques such as transabdominis release and component separation with retrorectus mesh placement and robotic approaches to abdominal wall hernia are being increasingly utilized in these patients. This article reviews these aspects of abdominal wall hernia repair with a discussion of recent results and the importance of quality improvement and monitoring of outcomes.
