“…Itani KM et al showed laparoscopic group had shorter postoperative duration for return to normal work (28.5 days) as compared to those who had open mesh repair (23.0 days). 26 But Rosen MJ et al showed that there is no significant difference in return to regular work. .…”

“…The postoperative infection rate in open inguinal hernia mesh repair has been reported as high as 9% (Yerdel et al, 2001), whereas laparoscopic ventral hernia mesh repair has a postoperative mesh infection rate of 0.7-2%, and open ventral hernia mesh repair has an infection rate as high as 7-18% (Ríos et al, 2001;Itani et al, 2010). Mesh infection is a great challenge for surgeons.…”
