pubmed:abstractText
The recurrence rate for incisional hernias following reconstruction depends not only on the size of the initial hernia or abdominal wall defect but also on the number of the concomitant diseases. The surgical approach chosen and the level of tension affecting the sutures both represent essential indicators of long-term success in abdominal wall reconstruction. Several techniques have been advocated to reconstruct the abdominal wall, either with or without use of alloplastic material. A number of authors even recommended separating the lateral components of the abdominal wall to preserve innervation and blood supply of the advanced parts.
