- Large Ventral Hernia Repair
Patient in her 30’s presented on referral after an infected abdominal mesh had been removed.Her skin was closed on top of a large hernia below.Her hernia could not safely be reconstructed using traditional techniques.Dr. Mussman performed an abdominal panniculectomy of the lower abdomen skin and fat to decrease chances of wound healing difficulty and infection.He also performed a component separation hernia repair that allows the abdominal core to be reconstructed by disassembling the three layers of the lateral abdominal wall.The patient recovered well without hernia recurrence.
