Giant Pseudocyst

AbstractGiant pseudocyst is a very rare complication after incisional hernia repair with mesh. We present a case of 54-year-old male patient with a giant pseudocyst, which developed after incisional hernia repair with mesh. A patient was discussed during multidisciplinary team meeting and operative treatment was suggested to the patient. Extirpation of the cyst was accomplished. There was observed no defect in the abdominal wall. The patient was discharged on the 7th postoperative day. Ultrasonography two weeks after discharge again showed fluid collection. There were 6 aspirations every week starting from 400 ml serous fluid at the beginning and 60 ml at the end. There were no signs of fluid collection one month after the last aspiration. Surgical plastic treatment of giant pseudocyst after incisional hernia mesh repair is safe and feasible despite its low prevalence.

Giant Pseudocyst

We report clinical details and imaging findings of a case of a giant pseudocyst occurring in the anterior abdominal wall of a 61-year-old female. This was a late complication following the repair of an incisional hernia with mesh. Surgical excision revealed a well-encapsulated pseudocyst with histopathology confirming absence of epithelial cells. We further discuss current treatment methods for incisional hernias, as well as prevalence, etiology, and management of pseudocysts complicating hernioplasty.

The Mean

Aim. Three incisional ventral abdominal wall hernias were repaired by placing a 20 × 30 cm composite mesh via single incision of 2 cm. Methods. All three cases had previous operations and presented with giant incisional defects clinically. The defects were repaired laparoscopically via single incision with the placement of a composite mesh of 20 × 30 cm. Nonabsorbable sutures were needed to hang and fix the mesh only in the first case. Double-crown technique was used in all of the cases to secure the mesh to the anterior abdominal wall. Results. The mean operation time was 120 minutes. The patients were mobilized and led for oral intake at the first postoperative day. No morbidity occurred. Conclusion. Abdominal incisional hernias can be repaired via single incision with a mesh application in experienced centers.

Background: The problems associated with shaft-based instrumentation include restricted manoeuvrability, restricted visibility and sword fighting of instruments. One of the easiest solutions is to reduce the number of working ports. A unique approach is by the use of a natural force of nature i.e.; magnetism. In this study, we have tried to incorporate the properties of magnetism and magnetic substances to the advantage of surgeons and hence, patients.Methods: The magnet employed in our study is a 3500 Gauss magnet, of 15×10 cm which was placed over the anterior abdominal wall in a sterile manner. The magnet was moved along the anterior abdominal wall in order to manipulate and mobilize intra-abdominal tissue. Laparoscopic bull dog clamps as well as B. P. handles were used intra-peritoneally to grasp tissue, which in turn are mobilised by the magnet. The end point evaluated was of safety and feasibility to adequately mobilize and manipulate organs to achieve effective exposure for dissection.Results: In total, we have successfully completed 15 surgical procedures using magnet assisted tool. Eight patients underwent magnet assisted laparoscopic appendectomy. three patients underwent magnet assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Four patients underwent magnet assisted mesh repair for ventral hernias. None of the patients developed magnet related complications.Conclusions: Magnet assisted laparoscopic surgery is feasible and easy to use. The cost can be minimal. This is a new concept that is here to stay and will become integrated into many other forms in the future. In the rapidly evolving world of surgery, with invasiveness of surgery on the downward trend, magnetism may be the answer to the next leap in surgery: non-invasive surgery.

Necrotizing fasciitis is a progressive infection of fascia that is associated with necrosis of subcutaneous tissues. It has high morbidity and mortality rates because the diagnosis is often not made early enough to institute the aggressive treatment that is necessary to prevent death. We herein report a case of necrotizing fasciitis of the anterior abdominal wall following a myomectomy in an obese diabetic female that was diagnosed early enough to allow for a favorable outcome following aggressive antibiotic therapy and surgical debridement.
