ABSTRACT
Objective@#To study the outcome of perforator flap combined with mesh in repairing cicatricial abdominal hernia after deep burn.@*Methods@#From June 2000 to June 2016, 11 cases of cicatricial abdominal wall hernia after deep burn were treated. 8 cases were caused by electrical burn, 2 cases by stove burn and 1 case by molten iron burn. All of them were Ⅳ degree burn of abdominal wall. The overall treatment time was 1-11 years, with the average of 4.1 years. The hernias were 6 cm × 6 cm to 12 cm × 11 cm in size. The abdominal wall hernia was repaired following the process of scar excision, mesh and perforator flap transfer and defect repairment. 3 kinds of mesh materials were used, polypropylene mesh (n=7), composite mesh (n=2), and acellular allogenic dermis (n=2). The size of meshes ranged from 8 cm ×8 cm to 16 cm ×13 cm. Meanwhile, paraumbilical perforator flaps were used in 5 patients, and anterolateral thigh perforator flaps were 6. The flaps were 18 cm ×10 cm to 22 cm ×13 cm in size.@*Results@#All 11 cases of abdominal wall hernia were repaired. Follow-up period was 6 months to 2 years. There was no recurrence was found. The shape of the flap was satisfying.@*Conclusions@#The perforator flap combined with mesh is a good method to repair cicatricial abdominal wall hernia after deep burn.
