Abstract
Treatment of abdominal hernias has undergone considerable development over the last decades. Since the introduction of mesh-based methods the recurrence rate has dropped. Today there is considerable development regarding the meshes with resorbable meshes entering the market, but some patients might not need a mesh at all. This could lead to individualized choice of treatment for the patients. The treatment of hernias is thereby getting more specialized. This could argue for special hernia centres, so that development and training can be optimized.
