The authors performed alloplasty of postoperative ventral hernias in 180 patients. To characterize hernias, they were used by the classification of
K.D. Toskin and Rath A. Two types of operations were performed: Reconstruction of the anterior abdominal wall (170) and correction of the anterior abdominal wall (10). A polypropylene mesh was used as an alloplastic implant. All patients underwent all necessary studies, including measurement of intra-abdominal pressure, determination of body mass index (BMI). Local complications were observed in 13 (7.2%) and in 5 (2.8%) general complications were observed. In the study of long-term results for a period (7 years), a recurrent hernia was not detected. Alloplasty of postoperative ventral hernias using polypropylene mesh is the method of choice among the existing methods of hernioplasty.
