Abdominal Repair

Background: Incisional hernia forms the most common delayed morbidity following midline laparotomy surgeries- causing mental trauma to the patient impairing their quality of life and scars the name and fame of the surgeon. So, the need for possible attributes on surgeon’s aspect to prevent the incisional hernia is the need of the hour. We planned a randomized controlled trial to compare two different abdominal closure techniques to reduce the incidence of Incisional hernia following midline laparotomy incisions. We advocated Hughes abdominal repair which includes a series of two horizontal and two vertical mattresses within single suture whereby the tension load of suture is distributed both along and across the suture line.Methods: 1:1 Randomized controlled trial in which the patient is blinded and obviously operating surgeon is non-blinded. Evaluating examiner and radiologist are blinded.100 patients who underwent emergency and elective midline laparotomies were enrolled in the study and intra-operatively randomized into two groups in 1:1 pattern. Ethical clearance obtained from the Institutional ethical committee. The primary outcome measure is the incidence of burst abdomen at the end of 15 days by the evaluating surgeon (non-operated surgeon who is blinded). The secondary outcome is the incidence of incisional hernia at the end of one year-evaluated by detailed clinical examination with radiological proof using CT abdomen.Results: The incidence of incisional hernia is significantly low in Hughes abdominal repair than conventional abdominal closure.Conclusions: Hughes abdominal wall closure is superior to conventional closure in both emergency and elective laparotomy cases, in prevention of wound dehiscence and Incisional hernias later. Present study encourages us that Hughes abdominal wall repair is comparable to mesh repairs. This study needs to be continued further to a vast sample size to perfectly assess the statistical significance.

Abstract Background: Incisional hernias are important complications of abdominal surgery. Normally they are followed by the growth of the hernia sac and an increase of the abdominal wall defect with loss of domain of the herniated organs. Case report: We report a case of a 51 year old female, admitted in the 1st Surgical Clinic of the County Emergency Clinical Hospital of Tîrgu Mureș with a large median reducible incisional hernia and a wall defect of 10/12 cm. The abdominoplasty was performed using the Oscar Ramirez technique, which consists of a longitudinal incision along the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle, at approximately 1-2 cm from the external edge of the rectus abdominis. This procedure allows the abdominal wall closure. This case is part of a lot of 4 patients who received this treatment using the aforementioned procedure in the past 2 months. Postoperative recovery was favorable, bowel movements were present on the second day after the surgery, the subcutaneous drains were shortened on the fifth day and removed on the sixth. There were no immediate postoperative complications or up to a month after the surgery. The patient was discharged on the seventh day. Conclusions: This technique can be used alone in case of large abdominal wall defects, or prequeling an on-lay mesh procedure addressed to a weak abdominal wall, case in which the functional result is superior to a substitutional mesh.
