Abstract
INTRODUCTION: There are many techniques which may be involved in abdominal hernia repair, from classical to tension-free. Treatment of complicated hernias has undergone evolution. Many surgeons consider the laparoscopic method as a method of choice for incisional hernia repair. Sometimes miniinvasive repair of complicated hernia is not so easy to perform. We are convinced that selected patients may benefit from combined open and laparoscopic techniques.
AIM: To present the operating technique and early results of treatment of 15 patients operated on using the 3 hybrid technique.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifteen patients suffering from recurrent incisional hernias underwent the hybrid technique for their repair between June 2012 and April 2015. The hybrid technique was performed using synthetic meshes in 14 cases and a biological implant in 1 case.
RESULTS: The early postoperative period was uncomplicated in all cases. Within a maximum follow-up period of 32 months, two deep wound infections were observed.
CONCLUSIONS: The hybrid technique may be used in patients with recurrent incisional hernias.
