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.

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMs) are ubiquitous and are being increasingly reported as human opportunistic infection. Cutaneous infection caused by mixed NTM is extremely rare. We encountered the case of a 46-year-old female, who presented with multiple discharging sinuses over the lower anterior abdominal wall (over a previous appendectomy scar) for the past 2 years. Microscopy and culture of the pus discharge were done to isolate and identify the etiological agent. Finally, GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS assay proved it to be a mixed infection caused byMycobacterium szulgaiandM. intermedium. The patient was advised a combination of rifampicin 600 mg once daily, ethambutol 600 mg once daily, and clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily to be taken along with periodic follow-up based upon clinical response as well as microbiological response. We emphasize that infections by NTM must be considered in the etiology of nonhealing wounds or sinuses, especially at postsurgical sites.
