Primary ventral hernia: anatomy, preoperative and postoperative recommendations 

- to have a solid knowledge of the anterior abdominal wall anatomy relating to primary ventral hernias
- to understand the function of the abdominal wall
- to be able to examine the abdomen with regard to a primary ventral hernia
- to know about appropriate preoperative work-up with regard to primary ventral hernia
- to be able to plan and inform on postoperative care
- to understand the indication for surgical repair for diastasis recti

Primary ventral hernia: therapy 

- to be aware of the surgical options for primary ventral hernia (PVH) repair
- to understand the benefits and disadvantages of each surgical technique
- to be able to tailor the right operation to the right patient

Primary ventral hernia (PVH): therapy 

PDF reference

Primary ventral hernia: guidelines 

- to understand the rationale for clinical guidelines
- to understand how modern clinical guidelines are created
- to be aware of the evidence around the clinical recommendations for the management of midline primary ventral hernias
- to be aware of the evidence around the clinical recommendations for the management of non-midline primary ventral hernias
- to be aware of the evidence around the clinical recommendations for the management of primary ventral hernias in unusual clinical settings

Study all PVH aspects from preoperative diagnostic work-up to treatment options and postoperative management
