Clinical trials: Incisional Hernia
Incisional Hernia
Does the Use of Prophylactic Mesh Reduce Incisional Hernia?
Incisional hernia is a common condition after abdominal surgery. Because linea alba has less vascularity, incisional hernia more common in midline incisions. It is seen in the general population between 11-20%.
