Introduction. Loss of domain represents a defect in abdominal wall or loss of continuity of fascial closure, with more than 20% of the peritoneal cavity content under the skin in a serous sac, where the reconstruction involves additional reconstructive techniques. Clinical Case. A 63-year-old active smoker with multiple comorbidities such as COPD severe form with the need for oxygen at home (may be an absolute contraindication) and surgical history of open umbilical hernia repair with a rapid development of loss of domain hernia (2 weeks after surgery) was prepared preoperatively with Botulinum Toxin type A and Preoperative Progressive Pneumoperitoneum. Discussion. Despite comorbidities, by optimizing the abdominal wall with Botulinum Toxin type A and Preoperative Progressive Pneumoperitoneum with the intraoperative use of the Rives-Stoppa technique or posterior separation of components, Abdominal Wall Strength Score improves significantly in a short time, with quick socio-economic reintegration and low-rate of complications. Conclusions. By preoperative preparation, with augmentation techniques of the abdominal wall, thus, even the barriers given by comorbidities (absolute contraindications) are overcame, with low postoperative risks, offering the patient a normal quality of life.

Background: The combination of preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum (PPP) and botulinum toxin type A (BTA) in adjuvant treatment of large parastomal hernia (LPH) has not been reported in the previous literature.Methods: From February 2018 to June 2019, 16 patients were diagnosed with LPH in our hospital were included in this study. All patients received PPP and BTA treatment to expand abdominal volume and extend abdominal muscle before surgery. The laparoscopic Sugarbaker method was preferred for defect close.Results: Before and after PPP and BTA, the mean volume of the parastomal hernia (VPH) was 1,522 and 1,644 cc, respectively (P < 0.01), and the mean volume of the abdominal cavity (VAC) was 5,847 and 9,408 cc, respectively (P < 0.01). The VPH/VAC ratio was decreased by an average of 8.4% after the combination management. And the lateral abdominal muscle length was increased by an average of 4.8 cm/side (P < 0.01). These patients underwent surgery successfully, and no hernia recurrence after (17.6 ± 2.4) months of follow-up.Conclusions: The combination of PPP and BTA effectively expand the abdominal volume, decrease the risk of abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) postoperatively, and beneficial to laparoscopic repair of LPH.
