Prospective and retrospective cohort studies involving adults with RD and concomitant ventral hernias were included. Surgical techniques were classified based on working space (subcutaneous vs. retromuscular) and wall repair technique (stapled vs. fascial plication suture). The primary outcome was recurrence of RD or hernia, and secondary outcomes included seroma, surgical site infections (SSIs), and bleeding.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Twenty-two studies comprising 1,616 patients were analyzed. Mean age was 45.6 years, BMI 30.5\u00a0kg\/m\u00b2, with a mean follow-up of 10.5 months. All studies were non-randomized and rated as having a \u201cSerious\u201d risk of bias using the ROBINS-I tool. Recurrence occurred in 19 patients (0.99%), with no significant differences between subcutaneous and retromuscular approaches (0.93% vs. 1.16%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.802) or between stapled and fascial plication techniques (0% vs. 1.18%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.090).
