Can't have one without the other: component separation plus mesh for repairing difficult incisional hernias.

摘要

In this case series of complex abdominal wall herniorrhaphies using component separation, the recurrence rate was 14.1% overall and 11.1% when a mesh was used to reinforce the repair. Recurrent hernia was not associated with patient demographics, comorbidities, thickness or width of the linea alba, presence of a contaminated wound, or postoperative surgical-site occurrences.
