Sažetak
Laparoscopic technique for ventral hernia repair was intrtoduced in 1993. We have tested this approach and observed the benefits of laparoscopic technique for ventral hernia repair, through advantages such as rapid healing, less pain, early discharge from hospital. During period from January 1st 2008. to October 1st in the year 2010. we have operated 153 ventral hernias, with open aproach on our department. There were 65 female and 88 male patients. Median age for male patients was 50, 85 years and 54, 03 for female patients, with mean age for both groups 51, 7. Median lenght of hospital stay was 5, 88 days (5, 25 days for male patients and 6, 62 days for female patients) . In same period there were 25 laparoscopic ventral hernia repairs (8 female patients and 17 male patients) . Median age for female patients was 58, 25 and for male patients 49 years. Median lenght of hospital stay for female patients was 5, 31 days and for male patients 3, 24, in total 3, 8 days. Further studies with longer follow up, prospective, randomized sample are required to confirm our observation, but recent data reports significant lowering of recurrence rates.
