Extended totally extraperitoneal repair (eTEP) is a novel technique that was first introduced by Jorge Daes in 2012 to address difficult inguinal hernias in which principle is to create a larger space than what is done in TEP to tackle large groin hernias [2] . The same principle can also be extended to include ventral hernias with the purpose of placing the mesh in retromuscular space, as suggested by Rives Stoppa (RS). Thus the surgical technique of ETEP RS was introduced by Igor Belyanski in 2015, while also reconstructing linea alba
