Unacceptable results of the Mayo procedure for repair of abdominal incisional hernias

Abstract: The widely used Mayo procedure leads to unacceptable results for repair of incisional hernias and other techniques should be evaluated and used more often. Repair of an incisional hernia does not improve overall quality of life.

“…The results of repair techniques vary widely. High recurrence rates have been reported for suture techniques, whereas mesh placement can reduce recurrence (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10). In mesh repair, one of the most important problems is the placement of the mesh.…”
