چکیده
Incisional hernias of the abdominal wall occur in up to 11% of all other postoperative patients and in as many as 23% of patients with postoperative wound infections. Trocar site hernias after laparoscopic surgery are reported in up to 6% of patients. Parastomal hernia formation occurs in 28% of ileostomies and 48% of colostomies. Morbidity depends on the location and contents of the hernia, as well as the development of incarceration or strangulation.
