Short-term Outcome After Ventral Hernia Repair

Completed

• Conditions: Short-term Outcome After Ventral Hernia Repair

• Registration Number: NCT04115150
• Lead Sponsor: Medical University of Vienna

Brief Summary

Hernia repair in sublay technique is widely accepted for ventral hernias, as it appears to be advantageous in terms of complication and recurrence rates. Recently, self-gripping meshes are increasingly used for hernia repair with retromuscular mesh positioning. However, real-life data on the safe use in that specific indication are still lacking. Therefore, this study evaluated short-term postoperative outcome of self-gripping versus conventional non-self-gripping meshes in sublay hernia repair.
