Excerpt

Our operative approach to the repair of abdominal wall hernias has changed tremendously over the last two decades based on our ongoing insight into the etiopathogenesis of their development. For instance, 20 years ago, use of alloplastic prosthetic material in the repair of direct inguinal hernias was rare, but currently, the accepted standard of care involves routine use of prosthetic material to “repair” the defective inguinal floor. …
