  • Title: [Combined plastic surgery of the abdominal wall in ventral hernia].

    Abstract:
    A combined mode of abdominal wall plasty in ventral middle-point hernia is presented. The principle of this method is to close the defect with hernial sac tunica, to dissect rectus sheath anterior layers and suture the medial margins of aponeurotic flaps. The defect formed between the lateral layers of aponeurosis are replaced either by an autodermal perforated flap treated by Yanov's procedure or by synthetic graft (polypropylene net). It is concluded that the combined mode of hernioplasty corresponds to the biomechanical conception of the pathogenesis of ventral hernia. This approach may expand indications for surgery in patients with serious concomitant diseases. The rate of early and late complications decreased.
