THE ROLE OF TENSION FREE HERNIA REPAIR IN THROMBOPROPHYLAXIS IN PATIENTS WITH INCISIONAL VENTRAL HERNIAS
A study of venous hemodynamics in 60 patients operated on for large incisional ventral hernias has been conducted. The degree of dilatation of the femoral vein and blood flow velocity in the veins of the legs depends on the method of hernia repair. The method for determine of individual safe levels of abdominal pressure has been developed. Tension free hernia repair taking into account intra-abdominal hypertension safe level is accompanied by less severe venous stasis.
