In this video, we present a case of umbilical hernia recurrence, with 2 previous interventions (M3W2R2), treated with transabdominal retromuscular repair (TARM). During surgery, the peritoneal cavity is accessed, which provides for safe manipulation of the hernia contents, especially in patients with previous prosthetic repairs. The aponeurosis is dissected to place the mesh in a retromuscular position, avoiding direct contact with the intestinal loops and reducing risk of adhesions. The patient who underwent surgery made adequate progress and was discharged 24 h later, with satisfactory outpatient follow-up visits one and 6 months after surgery (Fig. 1).
