Description
Incisional hernia is one of the most common long-term complications associated with surgical interventions. In this episode from the Hernia and Abdominal Wall Reconstruction team at Behind the Knife, we discuss evidence-based decision making to reduce incisional hernia rates following laparotomy. We review preoperative factors associated with hernia occurrence, intraoperative decision making related to fascial closure technique, and review literature on prophylactic mesh augmentation.
