ABSTRACT
In the clinic of general and urgent surgery of Kazan Medical Academy in the period 1998-2002 operations were performed on 160 patients with great and giant postoperative ventral hernias. Four variants of autodermal-monophyl plasty were used: contact suturing of the hernia defect margins with strengthening the line of sutures with a autodermal-monophyl flap, autodermal lacing, skin flap armoured with an monophyl thread, and a skin flap crimped with an monophyl thread. The results of the operative treatment were complicated by lymphorrhea in 8 patients, thromboembolism in 4 patients (with lethal outcome in 2 cases). Recurrences were noted in 11% of the patients.
