Abstract: 

This article discusses the effectiveness of the author’s method of marking a surgical site (Ukraine patent UA 99427) for surgical treatment of patients with postoperative ventral hernias (POVH). Based on the study of quality of life (QOL) indicators obtained using the SF-36 questionnaire, it was found that the proposed therapeutic tactics for surgical correction of POVH can increase medical, social and aesthetic efficacy to a statistically significant improvement in QOL.

Keywords:
