Abstract:
Incisional hernia is open a major postoperative complication that abdominal surgery remains. The incision type, suture technique, and the choice of primary suture materials are the main factors affecting wound healing. Prophylactic subfascial non-absorbable mesh can be used in high-risk patients to prevent in-cisional hernia.
