Juvany M, et al. - Recurrence rate is evaluated for patients operated on midline incisional hernia (IH) surgery, using a primary closure and prosthetic onlay technique, 5 years after the procedure. As per findings, recurrence rate on midline IH repair remains a concern (32% at 5 years). Researchers here recommend looking for other strategies and more efficient surgical techniques for IH surgery, especially in obese patients.
