The objective of this study was to determine the possible risk factors of incisional hernias after operative laparoscopy. Complications involving the abdominal wall, particularly incisional hernias, were not expected when laparoscopic procedures were first introduced. With the increasing number of laparoscopies in the abdominal surgery, more incisional hernias were observed. Of the approximately 3,145 patients who underwent laparoscopy from march 1993 through march 2000 in the First Surgical Clinic Iassy, a total of 15 hernias occurred, which is an incidence of 0.477%. There were no acute complications, such as small bowel obstruction, secondary to herniation through the trocars. Risk factors such as chronic bronchitis or weight increase, which give rise to abdominal pressure, were present in some cases. Precautions such as fascial suturing must be taken to reduce the incidence of this minor complication of laparoscopic surgery.
