Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Traditional hernioplasty and tissue-autografting hernioplasty have some limitations in repair of large abdominal wall defects.
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effects of synthetic double-deck complex patch on repairing large and huge abdominal incisional hernias.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed in 71 cases suffered large and huge abdominal incisional hernia from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from December 2008 to December 2010. All the cases were treated by tension-free repair with double-deck complex patches.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: All the cases recovered smoothly without serious complications. Subcutaneous hydrops occurred in 5 cases, and were cured by dressing treatment. No recurrence and incision infection occurred during the follow-up of 6-30 months after operation. The results suggested that the double-deck complex patch is a type of safe and reliable material which can be used to repair large and huge abdominal incisional hernias in present.
