  • Title: [Auto-dermal monophilic plastic surgery of ventral hernia].
    Author: Kochnev OS, Kurbanov GB, Birial'tsev VN.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1991 Sep; (9):113-8. PubMed ID: 1753632.
    Abstract:
    To improve the results of surgical management of postoperative ventral hernias, the authors applied their suggested variant of autodermic plasty of the hernial openings. The method consists in using for the plasty a band or graft of autologous skin armored with a monophilic thread. To reduce lymphorrhea the autodermic graft was covered with a hernial sac on a pedicle. The method was applied in 93 patients with good late-term results. The number of postoperative complications reduced to 3.5% and mortality to 1%, recurrences were not encountered.
