  • Is closing the defect after mesh creating a tension repair?

    Posted by John on February 26, 2023 at 5:40 pm

    Hello,
    Say a patient has a 4cm umbilical hernia. Most surgeons would recommend mesh at that point. But if you sew up the defect/fascia in addition to mesh, isn’t this creating a tensioned repair?
