N2  - Since general surgeons first started performing laparotomies in the late 1880's, acquired hernias and abdominal wall defects have become a surgical disease of their own. Many surgeons have made it their life's work to develop surgical techniques, design hernia meshes or utilize biologic tissue for repair of these abdominal wall defects. Hernias are defined as a defect in the normal architecture of the abdominal wall muscuolo-aponeuroic structure. They are subdivided into congenital or acquired hernias. The ventral or incisional hernia defects are rare due to the failure of normal healing of th
