Background: Incisional hernia is a common postoperative complication, particularly challenging when large, recurrent, or associated with comorbidities. The Transverse Abdominis Release (TAR) technique represents a major advancement in abdominal wall reconstruction, offering tension-free closure, reduced recurrence, and lower complicationrates
Aim: To evaluate the efficacy, intraoperative challenges, and postoperative outcomes of TAR in the management of complex incisional hernias.
Methods: This prospective observational study included patients undergoing TAR at a tertiary care center. Data were collected on patient demographics, comorbidities, previous surgeries, intraoperative findings, complications, and hernia recurrence at one-year follow-up
Results: TAR demonstrated excellent outcomes in terms of reduced recurrence and manageable complications. A 1-year recurrence rate was significantly lower than with traditional methods, even in high-risk patients.
Conclusion: TAR is a reliable and effective technique for managing complex incisional hernias, especially in patients with multiple risk factors or failed prior repairs.
