Medical - Medical (general) / Hernia Surgery
German term or phrase: Nahtverfahren
Ich hab's bisher mit "suturing procedures" und "methods using sutures" behelfsmäßig versucht, würde das jetzt aber doch gerne von einer Expertin/einem Experten klären lassen. Dankeschön! :)

"Für Patienten mit einer Narbenhernie gilt aufgrund der hohen Rezidivraten nach ***Nahtverfahren*** weltweit eine Netz-Verstärkung als regelhaft notwendig, um Rezidivraten von über 50% nach Nahtverschluß auf unter 10% zu erreichen."

Notes to answerer
Asker: But would you even say so in cases like this one: "Die Gewebeverstärkung mit Kunststoff-Netzen ist mittlerweile Standard in der Hernien-Chirurgie, und selbst für die Anhänger von Nahtverfahren gilt das Mesh in der Rezidivsituation als unverzichtbar." Doesn't that sound to general? Maybe "suturing methods" instead?
