Join us for Hernia Night Live replay. This installment of our surgical education series for hernia repair will feature a replay of Dr. Hope’s lecture, “Is It Time for a Paradigm Shift?” with Spanish subtitles. Dr. William Hope, Associate Professor of Surgery at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, examines and challenges the conventional wisdom around standard mesh repair through Phasix™ Mesh. He presents long-term data supporting a paradigm shift and explores the case for using bioabsorbable mesh in routine hernia repair. Dr. Hope discusses the latest data on both synthetic and bioresorbable materials, emphasizing the treatment of hernia as a chronic disease. Additionally, he shares how this data has influenced his practice algorithm, with a renewed focus on improving patients’ outcomes and quality of life.
