Lateral Abdominal Wall Defects: The Importance of Anatomy and Technique for a Successful Repair
نویسندگان
چکیده
Flank and lateral abdominal wall defects can be an extremely challenging phenomenon for surgeons to undertake. Their rarity and specific idiosyncrasies in regard to embryologic and anatomical characteristics must be taken into consideration when formulating an operative plan. We will discuss these cardinal points including technical recommendations by notable experts in the field to gain a better understanding in the diagnosis and treatment of this infrequent but morbid occurrence.

متن کاملLaparoscopic Paravaginal Defect Repair: Surgical Technique and a Literature Review.
Paravaginal defects, commonly seen in patients with anterior vaginal wall prolapse, are due to the detachment of pubocervical fascia from the arcus tendineus fascia pelvis (ATFP), at or near its lateral attachment. The majority of anterior vaginal wall prolapse is thought to be caused by paravaginal defects. Richardson et al. first described and demonstrated the anatomy of the paravaginal defec...
متن کاملThe clinical anatomy of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair.
Laparoscopic approaches for abdominal surgery are being used with increasing frequency. Their advantages are sometimes negated by the disturbing incidence of postoperative sequelae. In the case of inguinal hernia repair, these are often the result of failing to understand that the anatomy of the anterior approach to the abdominal wall cannot necessarily be directly applied to laparoscopy. The i...
متن کاملRepair of Large Lip Vermilion defects with Mutual Cross Lip Musculomucosal Flaps
BACKGROUND Vermilion irregularities are common secondary deformities after cleft lip repair, regressed or resected hemangiomas, trauma and tumor surgeries. Vermilion deficiency attracts considerable attention and detracts from an otherwise excellent lip repair. Minor and moderate vermilion defects can be corrected with upper lip advancement, rotation flaps, tongue flaps or grafts. Major defect...
