In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Thousands of patients worldwide undergo abdominal surgery every day; 2-11% of laparotomies will progress to an incisional hernia, particularly midline laparotomies, which are associated with higher hernia rates, reaching up to 70% in obese patients (1,2). Long-term recurrence after incisional hernia repair is close to 30% after primary repair and may increase to 70% in cases of iterative (redo) surgery (3). The main risk factors for incisional hernia formation or recurrence include surgical site infection, surgical technique, respiratory insufficiency (COPD), as well as overweight and obesity, the prevalence of which is rapidly increasing. Midline incisional hernias are the most frequent and represent a significant public health issue. In abdominal wall surgery, some teams perform so-called tension-free repairs, whereas others favor repairs under tension. The tension-free concept may
