Abstract
This article reviews 5 classic hernia operations described by the surgeons whose name they bear, with a view toward better understanding the authors' techniques and philosophies. Each of these operations, though considered by some as of historical interest only, offers today's surgeon reliable alternatives when the simple application of mesh by open or laparoscopic technique is inappropriate.
