Abstract
Mesh positioning is a commonly discussed detail in ventral hernia repair and is often cited as a major contributor to the outcome of the operation. However, there is a paucity of data that establishes one plane as superior to others. In this article, we will provide an overview of all potential planes to place prosthetic material and review the relevant literature supporting each option and the complications associated with accessing each anatomic plane.
