【 摘 要 】

Introduction:incisional hernias are a regular problem faced by the surgeon where prosthetic techniques provide many choices for solution and prevention. Objective: to show the advantages of the Laparomesh mesh for the prevention and repair of incisional hernia. Methods: an observational, descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study was conducted in 37 patients who had been operated on in "Manuel Fajardo" and "Juan Bruno Sayas" teaching hospitals in Havana and Santiago de Cuba, respectively, from November 2008 to June 2013. They had midline incisional hernias or were at risk of developing them, so they underwent hernioplasty with Laparomesh mesh. Results: the average age was 46 and males prevailed. Spinal or general anesthesia was used as well as prophylaxis with cefazolin.Conclusions: there have been no manifestations of rejection to the prosthetic material up to now. Neither immediate complications norhernial recurrence have been so far observed with an average follow-up of 36 months.
