Abstract

Fifty patients (5 men and 45 women) in the age group of 25 to 65 years with abdominal incisional hernia were studied. The most common antecedent cause (in 86 per cent patients) was found to be a gynaecological operative procedure done earlier through a lower midline incision. All patients underwent anatomical repair and were followed-up after repair for an average of 18 months (range 6-32 months). The results were reviewed and it was seen that there was evidence of recurrence in 3 patients only.
