Abstract: Ventral hernia repair is still a difficult problem for surgeons because of the high recurrence rate and possible postoperative complications. Repairs with a prosthesis have reduced the recurrence rate, but the anterior approach still involves high morbidity and a long hospital stay. The purpose of this article was to evaluate the results of laparoscopic surgery on ventral hernias using a new double-layer mesh in an intra-abdominal position. A retrospective analysis was performed of the first 20 patients underg… Show more

“…[3841] In such cases ultrasound of abdomen can be an useful diagnostic tool. [1749] If followed-up using ultrasound, seromas have been reported to be ubiquitous. [53] Some surgeons[253141] have advocated using dressing or abdominal binder to cause compression on abdominal wall to occlude the potential dead space.…”

“…La HTPA, descripta en 1906 por Selby, se define como la rotura músculo-fascial causada por un traumatismo directo sobre la pared abdominal sin penetración de la piel ni evidencia de hernia previa en esa topografía. 3,4,5 Se produce como consecuencia del impacto directo y/o del aumento brusco de la presión intraabdominal, por ello la mayoría se producen en zonas anatómicamente débiles de la pared abdominal, seguidas en frecuencia por los desgarros a nivel de las inserciones musculares. Por eso, la topografía de la HTPA no siempre coincide con la del impacto.…”

“…Son más frecuentes a nivel infraumbical. 3,4 La HTPA, a pesar de la alta prevalencia del traumatismo abdominal cerrado, se presenta solo en el 0,2% de los traumatismos cerrados evaluados por tomografía. 2 Los accidentes de tránsito son la causa más frecuente (78%) seguidos por coz de animal, caída de una altura, traumatismo deportivo o con herramientas de trabajo, aplastamiento.…”
