Does crural repair with biosynthetic mesh improve outcomes of revisional surgery for recurrent hiatal hernia?
ConclusionsLaparoscopic revisional surgery for recurrent HH is safe and effective. Selective use of biosynthetic mesh may protect from early recurrence and has the potential to reduce re-herniation in the long-term. (Source: Hernia)

Mesh vs. non-mesh repair of type I hiatal hernias: a propensity-score matching analysis of 6533 patients from the Herniamed registry
ConclusionsOur data demonstrate that mesh-reinforced laparoscopic type I hiatal hernia repair in larger defects is associated with significantly lower rates for recurrence, pain on exertion and pain requiring treatment. (Source: Hernia)

Lessons learnt from the construction and implementation of a prospective ventral hernia database
ConclusionRegistry compliance was low and highly variable. Lack of interest, incentives, oversight, and surgeon turnover are possible factors for noncompliance. Building a registry with these factors in mind, providing timely feedback, and conducting frequent audits may improve compliance. (Source: Hernia)

Open transversus abdominis release in incisional hernia repair: technical limits and solutions
AbstractIntroductionIncisional hernias with a defect width of more than10  cm are considered complex. The European Hernia Society guidelines recommend that such hernias should only be repaired by surgeons with experience of component separation. The standard component separation technique now is posterior component separation with transversus abdominis release (PCSTAR). Questions are raised about the limits of this technique.MethodsA literature search of publications on PCSTAR was performed for any references to the limits of this technique in open incisional hernia repair. We found 26 publications relevant to answer this...

A comparison of patient-reported outcomes in patients undergoing abdominal wall repair with either synthetic or biosynthetic mesh: a pilot study
ConclusionAfter VIHR, patients have low CCS scores, indicating good quality of life outcomes, in the short to medium term irrespective of the mesh used. However, biosynthetic mesh had lower CCS scores in the medium term. This may help surgeons and patients make better informed decisions about which mesh to use in their individual circumstances.
