Clinical report demonstrates improved outcomes with botulinum toxin and 3D-reconstruction in giant ventral hernia repair, highlighting enhanced preoperative surgical planning.
Incisional hernias occur in about 15 % of all patients that undergo abdominal surgery. Treatment of giant incisional ventral hernias (GIH) results in a surgical challenge associated with postoperative morbidities, risk of hernia recurrence, and costs. In recent years the use of both botulinum toxin (BT) to overcome abdominal cavity leakage and improved preoperative imaging studies by 3D-reconstruction has improved outcomes after these complex procedures.
