Reconstruction of large abdominal wall defects

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1999
Reconstruction of a large abdominal defect is a technically demanding procedure. A single flap is sometimes insufficient for cover. Compound procedures play an important role in solving this problem. The case of a 35-year-old man with a large abdominal hernia as a result of a traumatic defect on the right abdomen, previously covered by a skin graft, is

Integrated ‘Shield‐Spear’ Biological Patch for Fibrosis‐Free Bladder Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibrosis‐free bladder reconstruction remains challenging. This study pioneers an integrated “shield‐spear” patch: The outer anionic hydrogel layer captures GATA6+ macrophages to suppress collagen overexpression, while the inner S100 aptamer‐engineered EVs target Schwann cells to downregulate the TGFβ/Smad pathway—inhibiting fibrosis with enhanced wound

Abdominal wall repair with human acellular dermal autograft

open access: yesSurgical Techniques Development, 2011
Repair of abdominal wall defects in the presence of contamination or infection is a significant problem. The loss of tissue warrants enforcement of the abdominal wall, preferably by autologous material. However, autologous repair often requires extensive

Mechanically Active Hydrogel for Healing Intestinal Fistulas through the YAP‐Mediated Mechanosensitization of Intestinal Epithelial Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops the hydrogel with antimicrobial, adhesive, degradable, injectable, and temperature‐sensitive contraction properties based on the transcriptomic and pathological characteristics of intestinal fistula patients. This hydrogel can seal rabbit intestinal fistula in situ, reduce the intestinal defect, and promote intestinal epithelial ...

An Injectable Zwitterionic Hydrogels with Multiple Intermolecular Interactions for Effective Prevention of Abdominal Adhesions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An injectable PSA‐ZnO through multiple intermolecular including hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions for effectively prevents abdominal adhesions. The PSA‐ZnO hydrogel demonstrates superior wound healing promotion (≥ 95%) and more effective inhibition of scar formation compared to the commercial 3M dressing (≈80%), and prevents post‐operative ...

A novel approach for the closure of challenging giant omphalocele

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2015
Omphalocele is a congenital condition characterized by midline defect of the anterolateral abdominal wall whereby intra-abdominal contents covered by peritoneal sac are found herniated. It can be defined by size of defect or visceral contents.

Extragenital malignant mixed Mullerian tumor in the incisional hernia - primary carcinosarcoma in the abdominal wall: Case report [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2015
Introduction. This report presents a primary Mullerian carcinosarcoma localized in the incisional hernia i.e. anterior abdominal wall. There is no data in the literature about this localization of extragenital Mullerian carcinosarcoma.

Reconstruction of Complex Abdominal Wall Defects [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Surgery, 2013
Complex abdominal wall defects refer to situations where simple ventral hernia repair is not feasible because the defect is very large, there is a concomitant infection or failed previous repair attempt, or if there is not enough original skin to cover the repair.

Bioinspired Engineering beyond Homeostasis

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This perspective article introduces systems biology as the unifying theoretical framework behind bioinspired engineering. As an example, it explores how disruptions in multiscale biological systems, associated with pathological states, can be viewed as localized failure modes of biological cooperation showing emergent advantages that can inspire ...
