Ventral Mesh Hernioplasty : Laparoscopic Versus Open Sublay

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating two different methods for repairing ventral hernias, which are bulges that can occur in the abdominal wall. The two techniques being compared are laparoscopic repair, which is done using small incisions and special instruments, and open sublay repair, which involves a larger incision. The study aims to find out which method results in fewer complications, less pain after surgery, and lower chances of the hernia coming back.

To participate in this trial, individuals must be between the ages of 18 and 75 and have a midline ventral hernia that is suitable for surgery. However, those who are not healthy enough for surgery, have complicated hernias, or have previous hernia repairs may not be eligible. Participants can expect to be monitored closely throughout the trial to assess their recovery, and the study is not yet recruiting, meaning it will start in the future. This research is important as it could help doctors choose the best surgical approach for treating ventral hernias.
