Brief Summary

evaluate the clinical experience of Sohag University Hospital with laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair for ventral hernias, assessing operative feasibility, intraoperative complications, postoperative recovery and short-term surgical outcomes, in order to determine its safety and effectiveness in a regional setting.

Conditions

Keywords

laparoscopic ventral hernia

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic IPOM repair for ventral hernia,

  The primary outcome will be the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic IPOM repair for ventral hernia, assessed by postoperative complication rate during the follow-up period.
