Résumé
Incisional hernia is a frequent complication after midline laparotomy. The current standard repair includes the use of a synthetic mesh to prevent recurrence. However, the use of a synthetic mesh in a contaminated field carries a higher risk of mesh infection. In this setting biologic and biosynthetic meshes can be used as they resist to infection, but these are absorbable meshes. This raises the question of the risk of recurrence as the mesh disappears. Phasix® is a biosynthetic mesh getting absorbed in 12-18 months. The aim of this study was to assess the 1-year recurrence rate after abdominal-wall repair with a Phasix® mesh.
