High Recurrence Rates and Comorbidities Post-Transversus Abdominis Release

Abdominal surgeries following transversus abdominis release are linked to substantial comorbidities and heightened hernia recurrence rates. Efforts to minimize reoperations post-tar procedure are crucial. Results reveal a 36.1% hernia recurrence rate in 1137 patients, with 4.7% undergoing non-hernia abdominal surgeries, primarily due to small bowel obstructions. Urgent or emergent surgeries predominated, highlighting the need for meticulous management in these complex cases.
