Abstract

Abstract. In recent years, about 5% of the world's population is herniated. After the
operation of inguinal, umbilical, and femoral hernias, relapses are 5-12% or more. The
specific weight of postoperative hernias of the anterior abdominal wall is growing every
year and their relapses currently account for 20-30% of all operations on the abdominal
organs. The number of complications increases, especially postoperative hernias of the
anterior abdominal wall among the elderly and senile.
