  • Title: Superficial fascial system repair: an abdominoplasty technique to reduce local complications after caesarean delivery.
    Author: Al-Benna S, Al-Ajam Y, Tzakas E.
    Journal: Arch Gynecol Obstet; 2009 May; 279(5):673-5. PubMed ID: 18810475.
    Abstract:
    Abdominal incision complications are a major source of morbidity after caesarean delivery. Repair of the superficial fascial system may avert local complications after caesarean delivery by minimising tension to the skin and increasing the initial biomechanical strength of wound which has the potential to decrease early wound dehiscence and as a by-product correct suprapubic bulging.
