摘要
A review of our initial 100 patients upon whom we attempted a laparoscopic repair of either a ventral and incisional hernia is presented. The average follow-up period of these individuals was 51 months. The operation was completed with the laparoscopic technique in 96 cases. The average defect size was 155 cm2 and the average prosthetic biomaterial size to repair these defects was 214.8 cm2. The major complication rate was 4.1%. The incidence of recurrence in these patients was 9.3%. In all of these cases of recurrence, the method of attachment was that of staples or spiral tacks alone. In 5 patients, it appeared that the prosthesis was too small to cover the defect adequately. We believe that this is an effective operation but one that has two technical mandates. The prosthetic biomaterial (DualMesh®) must cover the fascial edges by a minimum of a three-centimeter overlap. Additionally, the attachment of the patch by staples or tacks alone is inadequate; consequently, the herniorraphy must include the use of through and through sutures to assure adequate fixation of the prosthesis.
