Abstract
Abdominal wall hernias are frequent findings after abdominal operations. The incidence has increased with each increment of abdominal surgical interventions. In the postoperative course, 5%–10% of the patients develop an incisional hernia [1, 2]; this rate increases up to 14% in patients undergoing a re-laparotomy [5]. The occurrence rate of such hernias is influenced by complications in wound healing or metabolic disorders such as diabetes, protein deficiency or renal insufficiency. Long-term respirator therapy or chronic-obstructive pulmonary disease are among the aetiological factors involved in the development of an abdominal hernia. In addition, there are a considerable number of large umbilical, inborn and acquired midline hernias. All these abdominal wall defects present a great individual and economical problem which should be overcome with appropriate surgical methods, including repair techniques with biological material.
