Outcomes of elective and emergency surgical repair of incisional hernia: a comparative observational study
ConclusionPatients who underwent emergency repair were significantly older and had a higher BMI than the elective cases. Emergency IH repair is associated with higher complication rates and mortality than elective repair. (Source: Hernia)

Analysis of retromuscular drain output and postoperative outcomes for heavyweight versus mediumweight polypropylene mesh following open ventral hernia repair
ConclusionWhile HWPP mesh initially had higher drain outputs, it rapidly returned to levels similar to MWPP by postoperative day three and there was no difference in clinical outcomes. We believe that drains placed around HWPP mesh can be managed similarly to MWPP mesh. (Source: Hernia)

Individuals with a ventral hernia who report moderate to high fear have worse functional performance than those with low fear
ConclusionIndividuals with moderate to high kinesiophobia have worse pre-operative performance-based (5xSTS) and self-reported (HerQLes) function and quality of life than those with minimal and low kinesiophobia. Future research should examine the influence of kinesiophobia on post-operative outcomes as it may be a potent target for rehabilitation. (Source: Hernia)
