“…However, a longer operative time was reported for LWM, while there was no considerable difference between the two groups in terms of chronic pain, postoperative complications, and recurrence after 6 months of follow-up. In contrast, RezK et al [43] have compared LWM and HWM for ventral hernia repair, obtaining better clinical outcomes for the LWM group. Specifically, LWM use reduced chronic pain and foreign body sensation, less frequent complications (i.e., seroma and infection), and lower recurrence rates.…”

Abdominal hernias are common issues in the clinical setting, burdening millions of patients worldwide. Associated with pain, decreased quality of life, and severe potential complications, abdominal wall hernias should be treated as soon as possible. Whether an open repair or laparoscopic surgical approach is tackled, mesh reinforcement is generally required to ensure a durable hernia repair. Over the years, numerous mesh products have been made available on the market and in clinical settings, yet each of the currently used meshes presents certain limitations that reflect on treatment outcomes. Thus, mesh development is still ongoing, and emerging solutions have reached various testing stages. In this regard, this paper aims to establish an up-to-date framework on abdominal meshes, briefly overviewing currently available solutions for hernia repair and discussing in detail the most recent advances in the field. Particularly, there are presented the developments in lightweight materials, meshes with improved attachment, antimicrobial fabrics, composite and hybrid textiles, and performant mesh designs, followed by a systematic review of recently completed clinical trials.

“…The author proves that laparoscopic prosthetic ventral hernioplasty reduces the volume of the wound defect compared to the open method, is important in patients with comorbidities, and is safe, especially when the ePTFE mesh is used. Compared with conventional open hernioplasty, the laparoscopic technique can reduce the patient's hospitalization time, reduce the number of common postoperative complications as well as frequent complications (seroma development, infection), and facilitate a quicker return to routine activities [11,12]. The use of self-adhesive nets during laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal approach for small and medium ventral hernias is safe and effective, with low postoperative pain, rapid functional recovery, and high overall satisfaction after surgery without increasing recurrence in the short term [13].…”

The purpose of this research work is to analyze and substantiate the advantages of the laparoscopic hernioplasty method, its improvement, to improve the results of surgical treatment of hernias of medial and lower localization. In the process of this research, we used a comparison method based on the surgical intervention by TAPP and SUBLAY performed on 405 patients. Patients were questioned according to the SF-36 form to assess their physical and psychoemotional state before surgical intervention and in the remote postoperative period. Significant advantages of using preperitoneal laparoscopic hernioplasty over open preaponeurotic hernioplasty include low complication rates (9.24% and 11.25%, respectively), easier nature of complications, shorter hospital stay, and quicker return to habitual activities. Treatment of patients by the TAPP method compares favorably with the SUBLAY method due to a smaller number of early and late complications, the nature and severity of complications, complications are easier to correct, the period of hospitalization is shorter, and the rehabilitation period is shorter. Laparoscopic technique for the treatment of hernias of medium and lower localization has a large number of supporters, both in Ukraine and in the world, who believe that the main advantage of this technique is the absence of contact with the free abdominal cavity and no reason for the formation of adhesions of the abdominal cavity organs, and therefore significantly reduced the risk of intra-and postoperative complications. Thus, the development and implementation of laparoscopic techniques show significant advantages in comparison with open laparotomy methods.
