To assess if Mayo’s repair can be used with an equal efficacy as Retro-rectus Mesh
Repair in cases of uncomplicated Umbilical and Paraumbilical hernias. Method: A Prospective Comparative study was conducted from December 2019 to June 2021 at Department of Surgery OPD, Krishna Hospital, Karad. A total of 120 subjects with uncomplicated Umbilical and Paraumbilical hernia were enrolled in this study and were randomly allocated to Group A and Group B. In Group A umbilical hernia repair was done using Mayo’s repair whereas in Group B subjects underwent Retro-rectus Mesh repair. Results: The 120 subjects were divided into two groups of 60(50%) each. We observed that majority of the study subjects were females (85% and 86.67% in either groups). The M:F ratio in the current study was 1:5.6 in first group and 1:6.5 in second group. We observed that majority of the study subjects were overweight (40% & 43.33% in either group). We observed that diabetes was present among 28.33% and 10% subjects in either group, whereas hypertension was reported among 16.67% and 5% subjects in either groups. COPD was observed among 1.67% and 10% study subjects respectively.
