One of the primary causes of hernia recurrence is wound tension; excessive tension could lead to tissues pulling apart thus recurrence at an early stage post-operatively.…”

Incarceration, obstruction and strangulation are well recognized common complications of hernias. Several risk factors determine patients' morbidity and mortality. Hernia surgery complications encompass infections, fascial dehiscence, recurrence, neuralgia, visceral injury, and mesh erosion or migration predetermined by many risk factors. The types and criteria for surgical site infections are defined by the extent of the infection. Whether the open or laparoscopic approaches are attempted, the rates of the respective complications depend on the approach. Post-operative hernias are appreciated because of their prevalence and complications. The criteria for enhanced recovery after surgery depend on whether patient is in the pre-operative, intra-operative or post-operative phase. Within the pediatric population, the risk of developing umbilical and inguinal is variable.
