Aim The aim of the study was to evaluate the rates of 90-day readmission and reoperation for complication, together with rate of operation for recurrence after either open or laparoscopic mesh repair for primary umbilical or epigastric hernias with defect widths above 1 cm. Material and Methods A merge of data between the Danish Hernia Database and the National Patient Registry provided data from 2007-2018 on perioperative information, 90-day readmission, 90-day reoperation for complication, and long-term operation for hernia recurrence Results A total of 6,855 patients were included, of whom 4,106 (59.9%) and 2,749 (40.1%) patients had an open or laparoscopic repair, respectively. There were significantly more patients readmitted with a superficial surgical site infection 2.5% (102/4,106) after open repair compared with laparoscopic repair (0.5% (15/2,749), P &amp;lt; 0.001. The 90-day reoperation rate for complications was significantly higher for open repairs 5.0% (205/4,106) compared with laparoscopic repairs 2.7% (75/2,749), P &amp;lt; 0.001. The incidence of a reoperation for a severe condition was significantly increased after laparoscopic repair 1.5% (41/2,749) compared with open repair 0.8% (34/4,106), P = 0.010. The 4-year cumulative incidence of operation for recurrence was 3.5% after open and 4.2% after laparoscopic repairs, P = 0.302. Conclusions Recurrence rates were comparable between open and laparoscopic repair of umbilical and epigastric hernias. Open repair was associated with a significantly higher rate of readmission and reoperation due to surgical site infection, whereas the rate of reoperation due to a severe complication was significantly higher after laparoscopic repair.
