In this work, the authors evaluated a group of patients operated on the III. Surgery Clinic FNsP MB in 2004 to 2006 for incisional hernias using the sublay technique--he mesh is implanted preperitoneally and covered by the fascia. The evaluation was done using a questionnaire, with a return rate of 65.5%. After an average of 24.8 months, 8.3% of patients report recurrence. Based on this data we further use this technique, but put more emphasis on minimalizing postoperative complications. From today's perspective, we consider retromuscular hernia repair using a mesh to be a standard procedure in incisional hernia management with best results in preventing recurrences.
