Healing Processes

The healing processes of sutured wounds of soft tissues in most cases depend on the type and quality of the suture material. Any kind of suture material in the tissues of the body is a foreign body that causes various reactive changes from the tissues. The nature of these changes, all other things being equal, is mainly determined by the type of suture material, its thickness and the method of sterilization of the tissues on which the sutures are applied, the trauma of surgery, the infection of the wound and the irritating effect of the threads on the tissues.

Objectives. To evaluate the immediate results of surgical treatment of patients with large incisional hernia of the anterior abdominal wall with the use of the mesh implants.Materials and methods. The data were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The study included patients with a large and / or complex incisional hernia. There were 108 patients who underwent incisional hernia repair with mesh reinforcement in the period from 2012 to 2016. In all cases the repairs were made with mesh implants. The average age of patients was (56.4 ± 10.4) years. The body mass index (BMI) was on average (32.6 ± 6.24) kg/m2. The medial localization of the hernia was 102 (94.44%). The width of the hernia defect averaged (12.2 ± 3.7) cm. Implants were placement in onlay positions – 19 (17.6%), sublay – 49 (45.37%), IPOM (Intraperitoneal onlay mesh) – 30 (27.77%) patients, the component separation technique (CST) with mesh reinforcement was used in 10 (9.25%) patients. Active aspiration drainage was performed in 72 (66.66%) patients.Results. The average time for draining the postoperative wound was (5 ± 2.2) days. The number of wound complications was 23 (21.3%), the number of seromas of the postoperative wound prevailed was 16 (14.8%) patients, of which 2 (1.85%) were chronic abdominal wall seromas, hematoma occurred in  2 patients (1.85%), the number of prolonged serous exudation was 7 (6.5%), necrosis of the wound edges occurred in 4 (3.7%) patients. There was no mortality. Reliably more often wound complications occurred in patients with large hernia defects (p = 0.006), and also with an increase in the duration of surgical intervention (p = 0.01). The hospital-stay in patients with complications was significantly greater (p < 0.001), the need for analgesics also increased (p < 0.001).Conclusion. Prevention of wound complications after large and complex incisional hernia repair with mesh reinforcement is an important direction in improving the results of surgical treatment in this category of patients.

Цель. Изучить особенности топографии межреберных нервов в околопупочной области передней брюшной стенки.Материалы и методы. Исследовано 88 нефиксированных трупов лиц обоего пола без признаков патологии передней брюшной стенки. Среди них было 45% трупов лиц мужского пола (средний возраст – 53,8±11,9 лет) и 55% –женского пола (51,9±13,2 года). На каждом трупе выполнялось топографо-анатомическое препарирование межреберных нервов в околопупочной области передней брюшной стенки с определением уровня их проникновения в прямые мышцы живота относительно нижнего края реберной дуги и наружного края прямой мышцы живота.Результаты. В данном исследовании в околопупочной области передней брюшной стенки было выявлено от 1 до 4 пар межреберных нервов. У лиц женского пола достоверно чаще встречалось 2 пары межреберных нервов (71%), тогда как у лиц мужского пола статистически значимых различий не установлено. Межреберные нервы проникали в прямые мышцы живота чаще всего через их наружные края (52%), несколько реже – со стороны их задней поверхности (39%). У лиц мужского пола значительно чаще наблюдался боковой вариант проникновения межреберных нервов в прямые мышцы живота (60%), а у лиц женского пола статистически значимых различий не выявлено. Для снижения риска интраоперационной травматизации межреберных нервов определены уровни их проникновения в толщу прямых мышц живота. Установлено, что расстояние от нижнего края реберной дуги до точки проникновения межреберных нервов в прямые мышцы живота достоверно больше у лиц женского пола. Расстояние от наружного края прямой мышцы живота до точки проникновения межреберных нервов в мышечную толщу значительно больше у лиц мужского пола.Заключение. Полученные данные могут быть использованы для прогнозирования топографии межреберных нервов при протезирующей герниопластике пупочных грыж.Ключевые слова: пупочная грыжа, задняя сепарационная герниопластика, межреберные нервы, хронический болевой синдром.

Crohn’s disease (CD) is nonspecific granulomatous inflammatory disease of all layers of the intestinal wall, characterized by a variety of clinical forms, heterogeneity of age groups of children and extraintestinal manifestations.  The diagnosis of the disease is difficult due to the presence of many  symptoms specific to a number of other surgical diseases of the abdominal cavity organs. This diagnosis is often made intraoperatively. In this study we report a case of treatment of a teenage girl who was admitted with complaints of a mass in the right iliac region extruding above the skin surface, instability of body weight, an increase in body temperature to 37.2° C for one month. As a result of laboratory and instrumental examination, the etiology was not established. Laparoscopy revealed abdominal infiltrate, consisting of the cecum, the distal ileum and a part of the greater omentum, tightly fixed to the anterior abdominal wall, which led to the destruction ofthe peritoneum, muscle tissue and aponeurosis with further infiltration into the sub-cutaneous fat. Appendectomy and separation of the infiltrate were performed. After that, the girl was discharged due to the categorical refusal of the parents of the further treatment.Twelve days later the patient had abdominal pain again, the dynamics of the pain syndrome intensified, the body temperature was febrile. After examination and detection of signs of peritonitis, emergency laparotomy, subtotal resection of the greater omentum, separation of the abdominal infiltrate (repeated), sanitation and drainage of the abdominal cavity were performed. During the surgery, the access to the abdominal cavity was performed with technical difficulties due to the fact that a conglomerate of intestinal loops and omentum was fixed to the anterior abdominal wall from the interior. The conglomerate was separated from the anterior abdominal wall by blunt dissection. The size of the conglomerate was up to 12–15 cm, formed by the transverse colon, the ileum and the greater omentum. The walls of the transverse colon and ileum in the area of the conglomerate had the cartilaginous density. For the purpose of further examination and determination of tactics for further treatment, the child was transferred to the Gastroenterology Department with a diagnosis of “Terminal ileitis. Purulent omentitis. Serous peritonitis. Mild normochromic anemia of mixed origin. Crohn’s disease?” After the additional examination in a specialized hospital, the diagnosis of CD was confirmed.

The article analyzes the review of the literature of foreign authors and authors of the CIS countries on the immunological response to the used mesh endoprostheses in patients after alloplastic methods of hernioplasty with hernias of the anterior abdominal wall. Currently, it is possible to monitor the course of the wound process in patients operated on for hernia using the immunological method. The correlation dependence of the nature of complications in the wound with indicators of additional research methods has not been sufficiently studied, which requires further study of this issue.

Introduction. Scar endometriosis (SE) is a rare pathology that develops in the scar tissue formed on the anterior abdominal wall usually after a cesarean section. There have been instances of women presenting to emergency or general surgery clinics with abdominal pain due to SE. Materials and Methods. This study retrospectively reviews 19 patients who were operated on in our clinic between January 2010 and January 2017 with a prediagnosis of SE and were reported to have SE based on their pathology results. Results. The mean age of the patients was 30.8 years (range: 20-49 years). The body mass indexes of 12 (63.2%) patients were ≥ 25. All patients had a history of cesarean section and 9 (47.4%) patients had undergone cesarean section once. With the exception of one patient who had her SE localized in her inguinal region, all patients had a mass localized on their anterior abdominal wall neighboring the incision and complained about cyclic pain starting in their premenstrual periods. The complaints began 2 years after their cesarean section in 10 (52.6%) patients. Mostly abdominal ultrasonography was used for diagnostic purposes. The lesions were totally excised and the SE diagnosis was made through a histopathological examination in all patients. No postoperative complications or recurrences were seen in any of the patients. Conclusion. Suspicion of SE is essential in women of reproductive age who have a history of cesarean section and complaints of an anterior abdominal wall mass and a pain at the scar site that is associated with their menstrual cycle. An accurate and early diagnosis can be established in such patients through a careful history and a good physical examination and possible morbidities can be prevented with an appropriate surgical intervention.

Subcutaneous leiomyosarcomas are rare tumors accounting for 1% to 2% of all superficial soft tissue malignancies. Although they may arise anywhere in the body, they most frequently occur in the lower extremities. The incidence of subcutaneous LMS affecting the anterior abdominal wall is very rare. We herein report the case of a patient with a giant subcutaneous leiomyosarcoma arising in the anterior abdominal wall. It was diagnosed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry and treated accordingly.

Background: The purpose of our work was determined by the accumulation of a significant amount of experimental material under the conditions of implantation of a foreign body, a mesh implant, into the region of the anterior abdominal wall in order to obtain experimental inflammation, in which foreign body giant cells (FBGCs) were constantly visualized as reactive formations. This research aimed to study the dynamics of morphological changes in FBGCs under conditions of experimental implantation of a foreign body, a mesh implant, and the possible mechanism of their formation Methods and Results: This study was carried out on male Wistar rats, in which a foreign body was implanted—a mesh endoprosthesis made of polypropylene—in the region of the anterior abdominal wall under the aponeurosis of the rectus abdominis muscles. A section of the anterior abdominal wall with the implanted endoprosthesis was excised on Days 10, 21, 30, and 60 after surgery, fixed in 10% buffered formalin solution. The obtained samples were embedded in paraffin according to standard prescriptions; histological sections with a thickness of 5-7µm were made and stained with H&E, according to the methods of Van Gieson and Mallory, and an immunohistochemical study was performed using the marker of cell proliferation (Ki-67). The revealed structural features of multinucleated cells were recorded by microphotography using a photo attachment and a Levenhuk video camera (USA). During the study, it was revealed that the amount, functional activity and morphological diversity of FBGCs gradually increased, reaching a maximum by Day 30 of the experiment. At a later date, some of them died, while the remaining part was differentiated, splitting into small multinucleated cells and mononuclear elements, morphologically identical to macrophages and fibroblasts. The formation of FBGCs continued as long as the mesh implant was in the body. Conclusion: FBGCs are reactive formations that arise in response to various endo- and exogenous irritation.
