OBJECTIVE To repair the huge incisional hernia of abdominal wall, a new surgical method was introduced. METHODS Eight cases of huge ventral incisional hernia, developed in 3 months to 12 months after operation, were treated in this new method with the defects ranged from 8 cm x 4 cm to 12 cm x 6 cm. RESULTS They were followed up for 6 months to 18 months after operation. The clinical results showed that all of the 8 cases recovered satisfactorily without recurrence. CONCLUSION The new method was recommendable for its advantages of easier manipulation, shortened time, no tissue reaction and less tissue trauma from operation.
