Study Arms (2)

Laparoscopic approach

EXPERIMENTAL

group A: Laparoscopic approach

Procedure: Laparoscopic mesh hernia repair

Open approach

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

group B: Open anterior approach

Procedure: Open anterior approach

Interventions

The mesh is intraperitoneal

Also known as: laparoscpic mesh repair of incisional and umbilical hernia
Laparoscopic approach

The mesh is placed by an anterior approach. It is placed after incision of the skin over or under the abdominal muscles, or is intraperitoneal

Also known as: Conventional treatment of incisional and umbilical hernia
Open approach

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age \> 18
  • Incisional or umbilical hernia over 2 cm and less than 6 cm in diameter

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with a complicated incisional (pain, occlusion, cutaneous necrosis), irreductible painless incisional or umbilical hernia will not be considered as a complication
  • Patients with a recurrence of incisional hernia
  • Patients with an incisional or umbilical hernia whose lateral edges are located so that fixation of the mesh (which must extend beyond the 4 to 5 cm) is not possible
  • Pregnant women
  • Patients with HIV therapy
  • Patients with cirrhotic ascites or other signs of hepatic insufficiency (bilirubin\> 35 micromol / l; TP \< 55%) or significant thrombocytopenia (\< 60 000 platelets)
  • Patients with a contra indication for laparoscopy
  • Patients with a life expectancy \< one year, or whose mobility within two years of treatment will damage proper monitoring
  • Patients unable to understand information about the protocol
