Abstract
An experimental approach to identify stronger and weaker fixation schemes in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair is presented in the paper. Two types of implants, whose mechanical properties are significantly different and five kinds of connectors are considered. Physical models of operated hernia have been built using those materials and porcine abdominal tissue. The models have been subjected to dynamic impulse load, similar to post-operative cough, a common cause of the tissue-implant break down and the sickness recurrence. As a result, a set of observations is made, which is a basis for medical recommendations.
