Excerpt

Laparoscopic mesh repair has been advocated as the treatment of choice for ventral hernias [1]. In the case of umbilical and paraumbilical herniae, the role of laparoscopic hernioplasty, at present, remains unproven. A Medline literature search supports the thought that no firm consensus currently exists on the best technique for primary repair of these herniae. A Medline search identified two prospective and two retrospective studies conducted within the last 6 years [1‐4]. Furthermore, an EAES consensus meeting recommended open mesh, suture, or laparoscopic repair for defects <3 cm [5]. Although ventral hernia repair is increasingly performed laparoscopically, complication rates with this procedure are not well characterized [2]. …
