TLDR
Laroscopic repair of ventral hernia using composite mesh using Parietex™ Composite mesh is an effective and safe procedure particularly suitable in the following cases: median and paramedian defects, diameter of defect between 5 and 15 cm, "swiss cheese" defects, obesity.

The Perfect Plane: A Systematic Review of Mesh Location and Outcomes, Update 2018.

TL;DR: Mesh reinforcement of a ventral hernia repair continues to be safe and efficacious, and the anatomic location of mesh implantation appears to influence outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deciding on Optimal Approach for Ventral Hernia Repair: Laparoscopic or Open.

TL;DR: Open repair in thin patients with large defects should be considered due to reduced complications and improved quality of life, and laparoscopic repair in obese patients and recurrent hernias can decrease the associated risk of infection.

Obesity and Abdominal Wall Reconstruction: Outcomes, Implications, and Optimization.

TL;DR: The impact of obesity and its associated comorbidities on the outcome of abdominal wall reconstruction is discussed and suggestions on how to optimize patients for best results are offered.

A systematic review of outcome reporting in incisional hernia surgery.

TL;DR: In this article, a literature search was performed in MEDLINE and EMBASE (from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2019) and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CRCN) to identify clinical and patient-reported outcomes for incisional hernia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of obesity on postoperative complications after laparoscopic and open incisional hernia repair - A prospective cohort study

TL;DR: Morbidity rate following incisional hernia repair is not significantly higher in obese than in non-obese patients, and BMI has no significant impact on the recurrence rate.

Laparoscopic ventral and incisional hernia repair in 407 patients.

TL;DR: In this article, the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic ventral and incisional hernias were evaluated in 415 patients who were scheduled to undergo either open surgery or Laparoscopic surgery.

Laparoscopic and open incisional hernia repair: A comparison study

TL;DR: In this series, laparoscopic repair of incisional hernias took longer to perform than open repair but was associated with fewer perioperative complications and a shorter hospital stay.

Comparison of Laparoscopic and Open Repair With Mesh for the Treatment of Ventral Incisional Hernia: A Randomized Trial

TL;DR: Laroscopic repair was associated with fewer, albeit more severe, complications and improved some patient-centered outcomes and the odds of complications, adjusted for study site, body mass index, and hernia type.
