About

Prospective non-randomized observational register study of all elective symptomatic incisional hernias operated on in the Hernia Center of Reference of Gross Sand Hospital using the novel endoscopic assisted Mini- or Less-Open Sublay technique. The data of all patients were prospectively documented in the German Hernia Registry "Herniamed". The novel MILOS-technique allows the minimal invasive implantation of large extraperitoneal meshes for the treatment of primary and secondary incisional hernias.
