We describe the case of a 37-year-old gentleman with Crohn’s disease and a complex surgical history including a giant incisional hernia with no abdominal wall. He presented on a Sunday to the general surgical on-call with a four-day history of generalised abdominal pain, nausea, and decreased stoma output following colonoscopy. After CT imaging, he was diagnosed with a large colonic perforation. Initially, he was worked up for theatre but following early senior input, a conservative approach with antibiotics was adopted. The patient improved significantly and is currently awaiting plastic surgery input for the management of his abdominal wall defect.

PURPOSE: To describe a cadaver model and to compare different techniques to correct midline incisional hernia using the tension at the musculoaponeurotic layer as a parameter. METHODS: Twenty-four male cadavers were used to characterize the model. The tensile force applied to the anterior layers of the rectus abdominis muscle was measured after the linea alba was resected to create an abdominal wall defect. A dynamometer was used to measure the tensile force necessary to cause a 10-mm displacement of the tissues towards the midline. An index that allows comparison of tensile forces from different points was calculated by dividing the tensile force by the distance between the point of force application at the aponeurosis and the midline. RESULTS: Cadaver is a good model for the study of midline incisional hernia. CONCLUSION: Cadaver can be used effectively as a model to evaluate tension of the abdominal wall when tissue advancement and musculoaponeurotic flaps are performed in the repair of midline incisional hernia.

Objective Incisional hernia is a frequent complication post liver transplantation (LT). The aim of this study was to compare divergent approaches to open abdominal wall repair post-LT. Summary of background data After liver transplantation (LT) via Mercedes incision (MSI) we observed an incidence of incisional hernia between 5% and 34%. Conventional repair consists of reopening the whole incision and reinforcement of the whole fascia using a mesh plastic in sublay position. This retrospective analysis compares open mesh repair with complete reinforcement of the Mercedes incision and open mesh repair of solely the abdominal wall defect. Methods Between 2010 and 2015, 218 orthotopic liver transplantations (LT) were performed at our institution, and 25 (11.5%) of those patients required an incisional hernia repair post-LT. One group received a local hernia repair (n = 15) while the other group obtained a reconstruction of the whole MSI (n = 10). We analyzed the preoperative status, causative factors for incisional hernia, operative details, and long-term outcome of these patients. Results Analyzing preoperative details no significant differences were found between the 2 groups. The mean time post-LT at which the abdominal wall defect appeared was 18 ± 12 months. The mean follow-up time after abdominal wall repair was 15 (11–19) months. Additionally, 1 (4%) patient developed a hernia recurrence without statistic significant difference between the 2 groups (P = 0.400). Conclusion Local mesh reinforcement seems to be feasible and safe in incisional hernia patients after Mercedes incision due to liver transplantation.

Cantrell syndrome is a very rare congenital disease associating five features: a midline, upper abdominal wall disorder, lower sternal abnormality, anterior diaphragmatic defect, diaphragmatic pericardial abnormality, and congenital abnormalities of the heart. In this paper, we report a case of partial Cantrell's syndrome with left ventricular diverticulum, triatrial situs solitus, ventricular septal defect, dextrorotation of the heart, an anterior pericardial diaphragmatic defect, and a midline supraumbilical abdominal wall defect with umbilical hernia. The 5-month-old patient underwent a successful cardiac surgical procedure. A PTFE membrane was placed on the apex of the heart to facilitate reopening of the patient’s chest. Postoperative course was uneventful. The patient was discharged with good clinical condition and with a normal cardiac function.
