| Core Tip |
The incidence of trocar site hernias (TSHs) varied from 0.1% to 2%. Previous studies and guidelines have also suggested fascial closure when using a > 10-mm trocar. The findings from this study demonstrated no significant difference in the incidence of TSHs between facial closure and nonclosure groups (0% vs 1.1%, P = 0.561) when the median clinical follow-up duration was 41 mo. Therefore, fascial closure may be selectively omitted when using a 12-mm nonbladed trocar. |
