•“A surgeon can do more for the community by operating on hernia cases and seeing that his
recurrence rate is low than he can by operating on cases of malignant disease”
•.•Sir Cecil Wakely, 1948

Factors influencing hernia occurrence
Endogen Exogene Others
• Age > 45 Sutures emergency• BMI > 25 length of incision intra abdominal • previous operation contamination pressure• anemia Medication• shock Type of incision• smoker• Corticoïds• Aneurysm/Marfan• (+30% risks)

Abdominal Wall Elasticity
• After the Intra-abdominal pressure, another important
factor in the abdominal wall repair plays a role, it is the
Abdominal wall elasticity.

“If we could artificially produce tissues of
the density and toughness of fascia, the secret of the radical cure of hernia would
be discovered.”

Which mesh to choose?
•Burst Strength•Compliance•Foreign Body Response•Degree of Shrinkage•Increased Pore Size

Types of prosthetics for hernia repair:
•Type 1: totally macroporous prosthesis, pores > 75 microns; example prolene ,
•Type 2: totally microporous prosthesis; pores < 10 microns; example gortex or dual mesh
•Type 3: macroporous prosthesis with microporous components; example Teflon, mersilene
•Type 4:

Types of Meshes
• Polypropylene (Prolene)• Mersilene• Vypro• Ultrapro• Gore-Tex®• Teflon®• Some other polymer

Polypropylene Mesh
• Most Commonly used mesh
• Reports showed good initial healing but were fraught with long term complications
• Those complications are chronic infection, fistula formation, erosion into bowels or through skin grafts

![Page 18: Surgical Meshes and Their Fixation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081720/553598274a79595b138b4668/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Polyglactene Mesh (vicryl mesh)
• Alternative to non-absorbable meshes
• Advantage host invasion and subsequent absorption of implant
• There is less infection complication, increase recurrence rate
• (satisfactory short term solution in infected hernias but not generally indicated when prolonged tensile strength is required)

ePTFE
• Micro porous, smooth texture minimizes tissue in-growth and limits adhesion formation and bowel injury
• Combined with a large pore second layer it can adhere well to the abdominal wall
• Disadvantages• Mesh infection is not well treated by antibiotics and requires
mesh removal
• Does not integrate well into host tissue when not combined with a large pore mesh
