Length of stay and surgical site complications are not increased after elective incisional hernia in patients with a history of solid organ transplantation.

There were no significant differences in LOS or infection rates between patients with and without a history of solid organ transplantation despite known risks of immunosuppression and chronic steroid use. Therefore, although these patients have many classic risk factors for poor outcomes, the data suggest that their history of solid organ transplantation should not preclude them from surgery.
