Objective To study the clinical effect of laparoscopic repair of abdominal incision hernia.
Methods The clinical data of 41 abdominal incision hernia patients undergone laparoscopic repair were retrospectively analyzed.
Results 〗The operation was successfully performed for 38 cases, and 3 cases were conversed to open. Operative time ranged from 78 to 186 minutes, with an average of 95 minutes. Pain was minor after operation. The first flatus and defecation ranged from 25 to 41 hours, with an average of 32 hours. Food intake started on day 2 after operation. The average length of hospitalization was 6 days (range 5-7 days). After a mean follow-up of 9 (6-16) months, no incision hernia occurred.
Conclusion 〗Laparoscopic abdominal incision repair with composite patch is a safe and effective method, which is worthy of clinical application.
