Abstract

The 5 mm trocar-site hernia are very rare complication of laparoscopic surgery and surgeons usually avoid fascial closure at 5 mm trocar-site. We show a case of laparoscopic anterior rectomeshplasty with early omental herniation through a 5 mm trocar-site and surgical repair, as well as an advice on whether or not to undertake a fascial closure of the 5 mm trocar-site.
