Barbed suture <i>versus</i> preperitoneal ventral patch in medium-size ventral hernia repair: randomized clinical trial
Preperitoneal ventral hernia patch repair is a safe and effective technique with a recurrence rate not statistically significant from that after barbed suture repair. Although postoperative pain scores at 1 month were higher after ventral patch repair, this difference had disappeared by 1 year.
