  • Title: [Contribution of abdominal plasty in the treatment of uncomplicated eventrations of the abdominal wall].

    Abstract:
    From 1987 to 1993, surgery combining two techniques was performed for 12 patients with uncomplicated abdominal wall eventration and excess subcutaneous adipose tissue. In order to meet both the functional and aesthetic needs of these patients, the operations required the co-operation between the plastic surgery and the abdominal surgery teams. Abdominal plasty was required to repair muscle and aponeurosis damage and remove abdominal dermolipodystropy with minimal, good quality scars. The early and late results were evaluated on the basis of several parameters including: global abdominal morphology, parietal containment, scar formation, complications, and the effect of treatment. Optimal results require a pluri-disciplinary approach.
