AB Hernias  are  so  ubiquitous  that  even  in  this  era  of  superspecialization,  hernia  repairs  belong  to  the  general  surgeon.  The  history  of  hernia  repairs  reflects  the  evolution  of  surgery  itself.  Over  the  centuries,  thanks  to  the  ingenuity  of  some  of  the  greatest  names  in  surgical  history,  hernia  repair  has  matured  from  a  reckless  effort  with  near  100%  recurrence,  to  its  current  position  as  routine  standard  of  care.  Today,  the  maturation  of  young  surgeons  can  be  marked  by  their  ability  to  repair  these  defects.
