Umbilical hernia is a type of ventral hernia that occurs commonly in adulthood, and mesh reinforcement is well established since there is a reduced recurrence rate when compared to suture repair. However, the repair of meshes could prove to be complex due to seroma, hematoma, wound infection, pain, and other surgical-site events.3 Seroma formation is considered clinically significant due to its ability to be painful, recurrent outpatient care, aspiration, infection, and slow wound healing.
