Mesh Hernioplasty Of Strangulated Hernias With Intestinal Resection

August 5, 2011 updated by: Mansoura University
Primary suture repair increases the risk for recurrence, the fact of benefit of mesh repair in elective situations is documented, and many studies have reported beneficial outcomes of mesh hernioplasty in emergency situations. Still there is controversy of using such grafts in presence of intestinal resection.
