Giant omphalocele: A novel approach for primary repair in the neonatal period using botulinum toxin.
[INTRODUCTION] Giant omphalocele (GO) is a complex condition for which many surgical treatments have been developed; however, no consensus on its treatment has been reached. The benefits and efficacy of botulinum toxin A (BTA) in the repair…

DECOMP Report: Answers surgeons expect from an abdominal wall imaging exam.
Abdominal wall (AW) hernias are a common problem faced by general surgeons. With an essentially clinical diagnosis, abdominal hernias have been considered a simple problem to be repaired. However, long-term follow-up of patients has shown d…

Complex ventral hernia repair in a child: An association of botulinum toxin, progressive pneumoperitoneum and negative pressure therapy. A case report on an arising surgical technique.
[INTRODUCTION] The purpose of this manuscript is to report the management of a child born with giant omphalocele (GO) that developed a complex ventral hernia secondary to an unsuccessful attempt of closing the primary defect. [PRESENTATION…

Ventral hernia secondary to giant omphalocele in a child: combined approach of botulinum toxin and preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum.
Omphalocele is a congenital abdominal wall defect that occurs approximately 1 in 4000-6000 live births. The abdominal-visceral disproportion, large diameter of the defect, volume of liver in the sac along with high incidence of associated a…

Abdominal skin tensile strength in aesthetic and massive weight loss patients and its role in ventral hernia repair.
[BACKGROUND] Clarifying the biomechanics of abdominal skin could lead to different uses for this tissue such as the ventral repair of hernias in patients with excess skin and incisional hernias. The objective of this study was to compare th…
