Grade B	An infected ePTFE mesh after laparoscopic ventral and incisional hernia repair should be removed
Grade D	Preservation of an infected composite mesh after laparoscopic ventral and incisional hernia can be attempted by either interventional or conservative treatment using percutaneous drainage, drain irrigation with gentamycin, and intravenous antibiotics
	If the conservative treatment fails or is not justified for any reason, the established options for treatment of mesh infections after open repair should be used
	Because only the options for individual cases are reported, a decision must always be made in accordance with the findings for the individual patient
