Abstract
Our results highlight the need to verify an unrepaired hernia injury model does not heal spontaneously prior to using it for hernia repair studies. The partial-thickness incisional model 1 and full-thickness excisional model 3 formed persistent hernias in pigs at 5Â wk and should be further explored as models for investigating hernia repair strategies.
