Present situation and prospect of the rapid development of hernia and abdominal wall surgery for 20 years in China

疝是一种极为古老而常见的疾病。进入21世纪后．新知识、新技术、新设备的不断涌现，新的治疗手段在临床上不断应用，疝的临床诊断与治疗已经发生了日新月异的变化。我国疝外科领域已经快速发展了20年，取得了长足的进步和可喜的成绩。但同时也存在着地区发展不平衡、概念分类混乱、诊断与治疗不规范、随访手段落后、前沿研究和创新成果欠缺等问题。因此，认清现阶段发展的不足，对现有的问题进行探讨，从中总结经验和教训，理清发展方向，为我国疝和腹壁外科的可持续发展提供坚实的基础。

Hernia is ancient and common. With the emerging of new concepts, techniques, materials and equip- ments, treatment methods of hernia have undergone ever-chan- ging changes in the 21st century. Hernia and abdominal wall sur- gery in China has been developing fast in the past 20 years, and has achieved remarkable progress. However, some problems still exist, such as unbalanced regional development, concept misun- derstanding, classification confusions, less standardized tech- nology, poor follow-up method, lack of innovation, and so on. Therefore, it＇s crucial to recognize the shortcomings of the cur- rent stagey, discuss the existing problems, sum up experiences and lessons, and clarify the direction of improvement, in order to provide a solid foundation for the sustainable development of hernia and abdominal surgery for our country.
