Abstract

Surgical management of incisional hernia remains a challenge to surgeons practicing the art of hernia repair. A novel tension free open incisional hernia repair combined with abdominal panniculectomy is described in detail. Our unpublished data of over 200 patients shows a recurrence rate of 2% over a ten-year period with follow up ranging between 2 to 15 years. This is an excellent technique for open incisional hernia repair.
