Rives-Stoppa procedure for repair of large incisional hernias: experience with 57 patients

Abstract: In this series the Rives-Stoppa technique had excellent long-term results, with minimal morbidity, in patients with large primary or recurrent incisional hernias. The absence of serious complications and hernia recurrences in patients with grafts in place suggests that the Rives-Stoppa procedure is the repair of choice in such patients.

“…10,21,22 Many studies of same interest compared the recurrence rate in onlay versus sublay repair and found higher incidence in case of onlay maneuver. 23,10,22 In the present study reported incidence of recurrence in both techniques comparable with those concluded in the previous works.…”

“…Recurrence rates reported by other authors for GPRVS: Rene Stoppa (2-3.3%) in his initial article and 0.5-1.1% in later articles. [17][18][19] In a series of 57 patients studied by Stoppa"s GPRVS, there were 01 recurrence, seroma-12%, wound infection-3.5% (requiring prosthesis removal). Nyhus -1.7% for recurrent hernias and 0.56% for primary repairs.…”

“…The use of synthetic meshes has reduced the recurrence rate in incisional hernia repair by up to 60% [1][2][3][4]. The type of mesh and the plane in which it is inserted it have been a matter of debate among surgeons over the last 3 decades and results remain variable.…”
