    The document discusses different types of abdominal incisions used in surgery. It describes the midline incision as providing good access to upper abdominal viscera while being almost bloodless, not dividing muscle fibers or injuring nerves, and being quick to make and close. It notes a disadvantage is a higher chance of incisional hernia. The document also lists several other types of abdominal incisions without descriptions, including paramedean, Kocher, transverse, Rutherford-Morrison, Pfannenstiel, Battle, McBurney, and Lanz incisions.
