Aim To assess the outcomes of implementation of extended Totally Extraperitoneal Repair (eTEP) for incisional hernia in our clinic. Material and Methods In our clinic abdominal wall hernias are predominantly repaired in eMILOS (endoscopic Mini or Less Open Sublay)-technique. However, we hoped for advantages in repairing incisional hernias in eTEP-technique. From 19.09.2019 till 28.04.2021 there were 13 patients with incisional hernias included to be operated in eTEP-technique. Results Among 13 patients, mean age was 64,6 years (range 47 – 78 years), 7 females (54%) and 6 males (46%). Average diameter of the hernia was 6,46 cm (range 2 – 14 cm). The mean Body Mass Index of the patients was 29,41 kg/m² (range 18,4 – 48,76 kg/m²). The mean duration of the operation was 162,38 minutes (range 106 – 237 minutes). The mean surface of the mesh was 612 cm² (range 225 – 1200 cm²). Hospital stay lasted mean of 5,8 days (range 2 – 28 days). We observed one postoperative complication as a lung artery embolism occurred in one patient with preperitoneal heamatoma due to needed anticoagulation. Till today we have not observed any recurrence. Conclusions Our study shows that a new method of incisional hernia repair with mesh placement can be a safely implemented and may have advantages compering with other laparoscopic methods. It has low complication rate, shows good cosmetic results and is cost effective.
