    The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a polypropylene onlay mesh in preventing trocar-site incisional hernia in high-risk patients.

  • 2

    A total of 140 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomized into two groups: one receiving the mesh and the other serving as a control.

  • 3

    The primary endpoint was the incidence of clinically and radiologically documented trocar-site incisional hernia after 12 months.

  • 4

    Secondary outcomes included the occurrence of surgical site complications such as seroma, hematoma, and infection.

  • 5

    The study was ethically approved and registered, ensuring rigorous methodology and blinding to minimize bias.
