Single-center ventral hernia repair with porcine dermis collagen implant

ConclusionTo the best of our knowledge, this is the largest retrospective single institutional study evaluating PADCI to date.

Reinforcement with PADCI may be considered a temporary closure, with a relatively high recurrence rate, especially among patients who are older, male, and undergo multiple explorations in a short perioperative period.
