Wound protectors for improved exposure in open hernia repair
2019
Introduction
Achieving adequate surgical exposure is fundamental to good surgical practice. Traditionally, in the repair of ventral and open inguinal hernias, this has been accomplished with the aid of self-retaining retractors or by extending the incision length. We propose that using disposable wound protectors, surgical exposure will be improved for a given incision length in the repair of ventral and open inguinal hernias, compared to traditional methods.
