With rapid increase in number of abdominal operations performed, incisional hernia has rises in frequency. This study was performed to review clinical profile and management of incisional hernia. Aims & Objectives: To study the etiopathogenesis of incisional hernia with respect to patient variable factors, types of surgical intervention. Materials & Methods: This study was conducted in patients who were admitted with diagnosis of incisional hernia & treated. 40 patients were included and followed up for factors resulting in occurrence of incisional hernia &selecting the most optimum technique of repair. The ethical committee clearance was taken. The written informed consent was taken from all patients. Observations & Results: Incisional hernia was found to occur more in females, often in 31–40yr age group. Most commonly occurred following gynecological operations, lower abdominal incisions. Most patients noticed the incisional hernia only 1 to 5 years after the index surgery. Hernioplasty (open/laparoscopic) was the most commonly performed surgery.
