The abdominal wall is a layered system of muscle and fascia that allows for complex movements and respiration. Inability to resist intraabdominal pressure results in defects in the abdominal wall or hernias. It is important to optimize patient and wound factors prior to abdominal wall repair. A tension free repair with possible mesh reinforcement is critical to prevent recurrence.

Abdominal Wall Reconstruction

摘要

The abdominal wall is a layered system of muscle and fascia that allows for complex movements and respiration. Inability to resist intraabdominal pressure results in defects in the abdominal wall or hernias. It is important to optimize patient and wound factors prior to abdominal wall repair. A tension free repair with possible mesh reinforcement is critical to prevent recurrence.
