Large Abdominal Wall Defects: A Safe and Reliable Technique for Midline Reconstruction-The Bonheiden Experience.
Surgical Technology International 2020 May 29
This retrospective study reveals the results of our approach to the treatment of complex ventral hernias. A single-center, single-surgeon retrospective chart review on 68 consecutive patients who underwent abdominal wall reconstruction for incisional herniation on the midline between January 2012 and December 2016 is presented. The Bonheiden technique is based on anterior component separation in combination with preperitoneal retromuscular mesh reinforcement of the midline. Data of 68 consecutive cases of incisional midline abdominal wall defects treated electively with the mesh reinforced anterior component separation technique were analyzed. Demographics, patient characteristics, and hernia properties were evaluated. Postoperative complications included 28% of wound infections/dehiscence, 25% seromas, and 7% hematomas. No recurrences have been seen. We conclude this technique to be safe and reliable for large midline defects in patients suffering with several comorbidities.
