This volume covers open and laparoscopic hernia repairs, including open and laparoscopic ventral hernia repairs. Many other topics are covered, including sports hernia, diaphragmatic hernia, spigelian hernia, and hernia in infants. A companion website will offer the fully searchable text and select procedural videos.
