MODERN APPROACHES TO SURGICAL TREATMENT OF VENTRAL HERNIAS OF THE ANTERIOR ABDOMINAL WALL AFTER SURGERY

Ventral hernias of the anterior abdominal wall are among the most prevalent types of hernias that can develop following surgical procedures, and they pose a significant challenge to both patients and healthcare providers. These hernias often arise as a result of incisional defects or increased intra-abdominal pressure after surgeries, such as those involving abdominal cavity operations. When left untreated or inadequately managed, ventral hernias can lead to a range of serious complications, including chronic pain, bowel obstruction, and dysfunction of the affected organs. In addition to these physical health issues, ventral hernias can also cause substantial aesthetic concerns, affecting the patient's self-esteem and overall quality of life. The visible bulging or protrusion of the hernia can lead to discomfort, restricted mobility, and in some cases, emotional distress, further exacerbating the overall impact on the patient's well-being.
