    Abstract:
    An analysis of clinical and US investigations of the abdominal wall in 210 patients with different surgical diseases of the abdominal cavity allowed division of the patients into three groups: without clinical and ultrasonic alterations, with a mild degree and with a severe degree of the anatomo-functional weakness of the abdominal wall. Indications for preventive endoprosthesis of the abdominal wall were determined using the method of quantitative evaluation of risk factors of postoperative hernias developed by the authors. Preventive endoprosthesis of the abdominal wall with a polypropylene endoprosthesis "Esfil" was fulfilled during operation on organs of the abdominal cavity in 11.9% of the patients by absolute indications. The number of postoperative hernias was reduced to 0.9%.
