Abstract:
In the past, hernia and abdominal wall surgery has been ignored, which may endanger the life of patients due to untimely treatment. In 1997, the concept of tension-free hernia repair was introduced to China. Chinese hernia and abdominal wall surgery entered a new era and developed rapidly. In 2015, scholars in China decided to create our own Hernia Registry. In 2017, Hernia Registry was officially released, and the Chinese Hernia Surgery Alliance was established in the same period. The Chinese Hernia Registry has became the second largest Hernia clinical registry database in the world. Although the follow-up rate needs to be improved, it is possible to have a preliminary understanding and analysis of the incidence of hernia disease in China. There are many difficulties in its application, and it requires the multi-level coordination and long-term commitment. The authors hope that through this work, the diagnosis and treatment of hernia and abdominal wall can be improved, and the ability of communication and cooperation at home and abroad will be enhanced, benefiting the general population of hernia patients.
