Midline repair after hybrid hernia surgery study
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new surgical approach for repairing large incisional hernias (a bulge from a past surgery). It may help you get better results with a stronger closure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been scheduled for a specific type of hernia repair surgery called HYDRA.
- Your hernia is an incisional hernia (comes from a past surgery) and is at least 4 cm wide.
- You can understand and fill out questionnaires in Dutch.
- You are willing to sign a consent form.

This study compares two ways to fix a hernia that appears after a previous belly surgery: one uses a larger cut (open surgery) and the other uses smaller cuts and a camera. The goal is to see which approach leads to a better recovery.
This trial tests if a preventive measure during open abdominal surgery can reduce the chance of developing a hernia later. It is for patients who are having a midline cut that is closed later, not right away, and who are over 18.
This trial tests whether adding Botox injections to surgery helps repair large incisional hernias. It may lower the chance of the hernia coming back.
This trial enrolls adults who are scheduled for planned hernia/abdominal wall surgery to learn more about patients’ experiences and follow-up through questionnaires. If you qualify and agree, your study participation may help improve how care is planned around surgery.
This study focuses on improving surgical treatment for belly wall hernias that develop after surgery (postoperative ventral hernias) in the middle or side areas. To see if you fit, the hernia size is checked with a CT scan.
This study follows patients who undergo laparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgery to repair ventral hernias (bulges in the abdominal wall). Researchers track outcomes to understand how well these less-invasive approaches work compared to traditional open surgery.
