Hernia Repair and Abdominal Wall Reconstruction.


Patients can often present with multiple abdominal hernias from previous surgery or previous hernia repairs. It is often best to expose all of the hernias from the same incision and repair each hernia from the same exposure.

 
The abdominal domain can be tightened where necessary or relaxed where appropriate with component separation to allow an appropriate tension repair. Redundant skin than contains scars from previous operations that would not provide stable soft tissue coverage over the hernia repair can be excised.
