Surgery types for incisional lumbar hernia repair
Part of Digestive system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for repairing a lumbar hernia that develops after a prior surgery. It aims to find which method works better for patients who are stable and not in an emergency situation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a lumbar hernia that came back or formed after a previous surgery.
- You are older than 16 years old.
- Your hernia is not stuck, blocked, or cutting off blood supply.
- Your hernia is not a new one that appeared without a prior surgery.

This trial compares two surgical options—closing with stitches (suture) versus using a surgical mesh—to repair an incisional hernia. It may help find which approach works best for preventing problems and improving recovery for people with certain hernia sizes.
This trial compares two ways to repair an inguinal hernia (a bulge in the groin). The goal is to see which technique works better and has fewer problems.
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.
This trial tests two less invasive surgery methods for repairing ventral hernias (bulges in the belly area). It may be an option if you have a hernia on your belly wall that isn't in the groin and haven't had hernia repair before.
This trial compares open and laparoscopic surgery for fixing groin hernias in men. It aims to find which method works better for patients who can have either type.
This trial is comparing two minimally invasive surgery techniques for fixing ventral hernias (a bulge in your belly wall). One technique places the mesh inside the belly, the other places it outside the belly lining. The goal is to see which approach leads to better recovery.
