This is the authoritative textbook on hernias, hernia repair, hernia complications, and abdominal wall reconstruction. It provides a comprehensive and modern overview of the field, integrating foundational science, clinical evidence, operative techniques, and global perspectives.

Beginning with the biology and physiology of the abdominal wall, Abdominal Wall Hernia Repair offers a structured framework for understanding hernia formation, classification, and progression. It covers the full spectrum of hernia care, including inguinal, femoral, ventral, incisional, parastomal, and complex abdominal wall hernias. This textbook also addresses issues related to recurrence and complication management and critically examines key controversies, such as watchful waiting, patient optimization, risk stratification, and the debate between mesh and non-mesh repair. Detailed discussions of various surgical approaches-open, laparoscopic, and robotic, including TAR, eTEP, and component separation-are also provided, along with considerations for anesthesia and models for ambulatory surgery. Furthermore, distinct chapters delve into education and training pathways around the world, as well as medico-legal aspects and patient perspectives.

This textbook stands out against the abundance of surgical textbooks for its comprehensive, evidence-based, and globally informed approach specifically focused on abdominal wall and hernia surgery, dealing with the above topics and many more thanks to its unique integrated structure. Authored by internationally recognized leaders in abdominal wall surgery, this volume provides authoritative insight, practical relevance, and educational depth, positioning it as a definitive reference for surgeons, educators, and healthcare leaders worldwide.
