ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two different surgical methods for repairing large ventral hernias, which are bulges that can occur in the abdominal wall. The researchers want to find out which method is more effective: a technique called modified sublay hernioplasty or another called intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair. The main goal is to see how many patients experience a recurrence of their hernia within a year after surgery. They will also look at other important factors, such as complications during surgery, infection rates, pain levels after surgery, and how long patients stay in the hospital.

To participate in this trial, individuals need to be between 18 and 70 years old and generally fit for surgery. They should have a large, uncomplicated ventral hernia. However, individuals who have serious health issues that prevent them from safely undergoing anesthesia, those with complicated hernias, or those who are pregnant cannot participate. The trial is not yet recruiting participants, but it aims to provide valuable information to improve hernia repair techniques in the future.
