Endolaparoscopic retromuscular repair of smaller midline ventral hernias-too much for too little?

This maybe in the nature of a large midline hernia, a complex abdominal wall hernia requiring posterior component separation and symptomatic divarication of rectus abdominis muscle with a midline hernia. The eTEP access technique was used to gain access to the retromuscular (retrorectus) space and endolaparoscopic retromuscular hernia repair for ventral and incisional hernias was reported to be feasible and effective (Ventral eTEP) [[6]]. The evolution of the retromuscular space as a preferred location for hernia repair of the abdominal wall has been long and eventful. [Extracted from the article]
