Challenging abdominal wall defects
The American Journal of Surgery, 2001We propose a simple algorithm for management of patients with challenging abdominal fascial defects.The medical records of 64 patients with complicated abdominal wall defects representing a consecutive series by a single surgeon over a 4-year period were reviewed. Group I patients presented with massive fascial defects and closed wounds.

Summary Herniation of viscera through defects of the abdominal wall can be categorised into gastroschisis, omphalocele, and the rarer bladder or cloacal exstrophy. Many of the principles of diagnosis and management are similar for these conditions. Gastroschisis is a small defect positioned to the right of the umbilicus.

In this section, two main categories of pathological destruction of abdominal wall tissue will be discussed, i.e., open trauma (burns, shotgun wounds, dilaceration) and infection of traumatic, operative, or apparently spontaneous origin. These lesions raise difficult therapeutic problems regarding the extent of exeresis and the subsequent covering of ...

Abdominal Wall Expansion in Congenital Defects
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1989A method for expanding the skin, fascia, muscle, and peritoneal layers of the abdominal wall is described, and clinical application is demonstrated in two children with cloacal exstrophy and congenital absence of the lower half of the abdominal wall. This technique provides an innervated composite reconstruction of defects in excess of 50 percent of ...

Abdominal wall defect with liver appendage
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1989We present an unusual case in which an appendage of the liver was the only herniated organ through a small defect on the left lower quadrant of the abdominal wall. To our knowledge this is the first case reported with this malformation.

Two main types of abdominal wall defects were studied, omphalocele (n=133) and gastroschisis (n=194). Low maternal age was associated with a low risk for omphalocele but a high risk for gastroschisis. For both types of malformation the risk at parity 1 was higher than at higher parity.

At about 8 weeks gestation, the enlarging liver causes the displacement of other viscera outside the umbilical ring, to return by 10 weeks. Failure to do this results in exomphalos. Thus, it should be covered with sac and Wharton’s jelly with insertion of the cord at its apex.
