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.

The incidence of incisional hernia after kidney transplantation varies between 1.1% and 3.8%. These are usually repaired electively using polypropylene mesh. We present here a case where a patient presented as an emergency, with a large painful incisional hernia over his kidney transplant, and evidence of local erythema and systemic inflammation. As this could have represented either infection or rejection, the patient was started on antibiotics and subsequently underwent graft nephrectomy and hernia repair using a biological (porcine-derived) acellular dermal matrix, Strattice™, with a satisfactory outcome. In addition, histology showed evidence of allograft rejection. This is the first reported case of an incisional hernia containing a rejecting kidney allograft, managed with nephrectomy and biological mesh repair.
