Background: Ventral hernia formation is a frequent and increasingly difficult problem.
Nonmidline hernias, parastomal hernias, hernias near bony landmarks, and recurrent …

Background Ventral hernias are common sequelae of abdominal surgery. Recently,
transversus abdominis release has emerged as a viable option for large or recurrent ventral …

The retrorectus Rives-Stoppa repair of midline incisional hernias is the preferred open
approach of many herniologists [1–4]. With larger hernias; however, a tension-free …

Introduction Large, complicated ventral hernias are an increasingly common problem. The
transversus abdominis muscle release (TAMR) is a recently described modification of …

Background: complex ventral hernia repair is a frequent and challenging topic.
Reconstructive techniques are numerous but most of them are unable to achieve the goals …

BACKGROUND: Several modifications of the classic retromuscular Stoppa technique to
facilitate dissection beyond the lateral border of the rectus sheath recently were reported …

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transversus abdominis muscle release
(TAR) with retrorectus synthetic mesh reinforcement in a large series of complex hernia …

Background Transversus abdominis release (TAR), as a type of posterior component
separation, is a new myofascial release technique in complex ventral hernia repair. TAR …

Background: Transversus abdominis release is a novel approach for myofascial
advancement in ventral hernia repair and has been hypothesized to have lower rates of …

Objectives To determine the efficacy and describe the evolution of the “components
separation” technique for abdominal wall repair in 200 consecutive patients. Design …
