    Abstract Unlabelled: The history of groin hernia surgery is as long as the history of surgery. For many centuries doctors, anatomists and surgeons have been devoted to this pathology, afflicting the mankind throughout its evolution. Since ancient times the Italian contribution has been very important with many representative personalities. Authors, investigators and pioneers are really well represented. Every period (the classic period, the Middle Age, the Renaissance and the post-Renaissance) opened new perspectives for a better understanding. During the 18th century, more information about groin anatomy, mainly due to Antonio Scarpa, prepared the Bassini revolution. Edoardo Bassini developed the first modern anatomically based hernia repair. This procedure spread worldwide becoming the most performed surgical technique. After World War II synthetic meshes were introduced and a new era has begun for hernia repair, once again with the support of Italian surgeons, first of all Ermanno Trabucco. But Italian contribution extends also to educational, with the first national school for abdominal wall surgery starting in Rome, and to Italian participation and support in international scientific societies. Authors hereby wish to resume this long history highlighting the "made in Italy" for groin hernia surgery.
    Key words: Bassini, Groin hernia, History, Prosthetic repair.

    Abstract Central Mesh Failure (CMF) after abdominal wall repair (AWR) is uncommon but should be considered in case of recurrence. The mechanism is unclear and different theories are actually proposed, as the action of opposite forces acting in the abdominal wall on the prosthesis, and the characteristics of the device to be implanted. The use of lightweight meshes in some cases could be inadequate to withstand the bursting strenght of the abdominal wall. Three cases of incisional hernia recurrence due to central mesh failure are here reported. KEY WORDS: Abdominal wall repair (AWR), Central mesh failure (CMF), Hernia recurrence, Lightweight mesh.

    Abstract Purpose: Despite the advancements in the reinforcement and closure techniques available, complex abdominal wall reconstruction (CAWR) remains a challenging surgical undertaking with considerable risk of postoperative complications. Biological meshes were developed that may help to complement standard closure techniques and offer an alternative to synthetic meshes, which carry significant risks with their use in complex cases.
    Patients and methods: A total of 114 patients underwent surgical treatment for CAWR with a Permacol™ (a biologic surgical implant). The study objective was to evaluate the short-term (6 months), mid-term (12-24 months), and long-term (36 months) clinical outcomes (through 36 months) associated with the use of a biologic surgical implant in these cases.
    Results: The cumulative hernia recurrence rate was 18.7% (17/91) at 24 months and 22.4% (19/85) at 36 months. Twelve (14.1%) subjects required reoperation for hernia repair within 36 months for repair of recurrent hernias. Between 6- and 36-months post-surgery, patients reported improvement in their Carolina comfort scale (CSS) measures of severity of pain, sensation of mesh, and movement limitations.
    Conclusion: A biologic surgical implant can provide long-term benefit to complex abdominal wall repairs in patients staged grade III according to the Ventral Hernia Working Group (VHWG).

    Abstract Millions of abdominal wall repair procedures are performed each year for primary and incisional hernias both in the European Union and in the United States with extremely high costs. Synthetic meshes approved for augmenting abdominal wall repair provide adequate mechanical support but have significant drawbacks (seroma formation, adhesion to viscera, stiffness of abdominal wall, and infection). Biologic scaffolds (i.e., derived from naturally occurring materials) represent an alternative to synthetic surgical meshes and are less sensitive to infection. Among biologic scaffolds, extracellular matrix scaffolds promote stem/progenitor cell recruitment in models of tissue remodeling and, in the specific application of abdominal wall repair, have enough mechanical strength to support the repair. However, many concerns remain about the use of these scaffolds in the clinic due to their higher cost of production compared with synthetic meshes, despite having the same recurrence rate. The present review aims to highlight the pros and cons of using biologic scaffolds as surgical devices for abdominal wall repair and present possible improvements to widen their use in clinical practice.

    Abstract : The authors read the article "The importance of registries in the postmarketing surveillance of surgical meshes" by Kockerling et al, and they completely agree on the role of a clinical follow-up of surgical meshes even if they suggest that a surveillance longer than one year is advisable, particularly in IPOM repair, to collect not only late complications but also more serious adverse events. This seems be the only way to properly assess the safety of the mesh.
