Abstract

This review examines the types of material used in hernia repair over the last 50 years and the evolvement of surgical repair techniques. The rates of infection and recurrence associated with past and present materials are also evaluated. In conclusion, while newer materials are associated with fewer complications, close attention to surgical technique is the single most important factor in hernia repair.

Abstract

A 31-year-old man underwent a laparotomy for acute intestinal obstruction symptoms, which he had intermittently experienced for 14 years. The cause of the obstruction was due to a volvulus of the small bowel caused by a mesenteric lipoma. This is a rare finding, which is ideally diagnosed by computed tomography, with surgery the best and most highly recommended treatment. This particular presentation, to the best of our knowledge, has not yet been previously reported in the English language.
