How Open Repair/Abdominal Wall Reconstruction is performed
Synthetic or biological grafts can be selected according to the risk of contamination and tissue conditions. Under general anesthesia, the anterior or posterior component separation is selected according to the defect and tension, and transverse abdominis muscle release is performed if necessary; the hernia contents are repositioned to achieve tension-free closure of the defect; the graft is placed at the appropriate level and fixed to strengthen abdominal wall reconstruction, and drainage or negative pressure is placed as appropriate. Postoperative monitoring includes circulation, pain, and incision, with the goal of restoring abdominal wall function and shape. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocol.
