The investigators are performing a genetic study of patients with multiple hernias (at least 3 primary hernias) versus a healthy control group. This genetic information is compared with circulating and subcutaneously biomarkers such as matrix-metalloproteinases (MMP's).
The hypothesis is that patients with multiple hernias have different expression of specific genes compared to the healthy control group.
Other examinations performed on the patients enrolled in this study:
