RESUMO
Preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum and botulinum toxin type A are useful tools in the preparation of patients with loss of domain hernias. Both procedures are complementary in the surgical repair, especially with the use of prosthetic techniques without tension, that allow a integral management of these patients. The aim of this paper is to update concepts related to both procedures, emphasizing the advantages that take place in the preoperative management of loss of domain hernias.

El neumoperitoneo progresivo preoperatorio y la toxina botulínica tipo A son herramientas útiles en la preparación de los pacientes con hernias gigantes que han perdido el domicilio. Ambos procedimientos son armas complementarias del procedimiento quirúrgico, especialmente con el uso de técnicas protésicas sin tensión, que permiten el manejo integral de estos pacientes. Este artículo tiene por objeto actualizar conceptos relacionados con ambos procedimientos, incidiendo en las ventajas que aportan en el manejo preoperatorio de las hernias gigantes que han perdido el domicilio (AU)

BACKGROUND: To compare the results with complete mesh removal (CMR) versus partial mesh removal (PMR) in the treatment of mesh infection after abdominal wall hernia repair (AWHR). METHODS: Retrospective review of all patients who underwent surgery for mesh infection between January 2004 and May 2014 at a tertiary center. RESULTS: Of 3470 cases of AWHR, we reported 66 cases (1.9%) of mesh infection, and 48 repairs (72.7%) required mesh explantation. CMR was achieved on 38 occasions, while PMR was undertaken ten times. We observed more postoperative complications in CMR than PMR group (p = 0.04). Three patients with intestinal fistula were reoperated in postoperative period after a difficult mesh removal; one of them died due to multiple organ failure. The overall recurrence rate after explantation was 47.9%: recurrence was more frequent in CMR group (p = 0.001), although persistent or new mesh infection was observed more frequently with PMR (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Although PMR has less postoperative morbidity, shorter duration of hospitalization and lower rate of recurrence than CMR, prosthetic infection persists in up to 50% of cases.

Introducción La eventración subxifoidea tiene características que la diferencian del resto y le dan entidad propia. El hecho de tener su saco muy próximo a los relieves costales óseos y esternón condiciona mucha tensión en los márgenes; la reparación, tanto por vía abierta como laparoscópica, no ha demostrado buenos resultados a pesar del uso generalizado de prótesis. Son poco frecuentes y se presentan en pacientes con comorbilidad importante (cardiópatas severos, trasplantados, inmunodeprimidos), tras intervenciones del área hepato-bilio-pancreática con incisiones transversales, esternotomías ampliadas por debajo del xifoides o laparotomías medias muy altas para cirugía gastro-esofágica. Material y método En nuestra Unidad hemos desarrollado una nueva técnica, basada en el uso de doble prótesis y adaptada a las características anatomo-fisiológicas de la región, para la reparación de estas eventraciones. La serie consta de 35 pacientes intervenidos de forma consecutiva entre 2004 y 2010, siguiendo protocolo quirúrgico y de manejo consensuado. Resultados No hubo complicaciones importantes la más frecuente es el seroma, 17,4%-, excepto un caso de infección de la herida por isquemia de piel en un paciente multioperado y trasplantado. El seguimiento postoperatorio hasta el día de hoy (entre 4 y 80 meses) no ha demostrado recidivas de la eventración y no se refieren molestias locales importantes. Conclusiones La técnica «doble malla ajustada» consigue en nuestro medio unos buenos resultados, tanto desde el punto de vista del cirujano (reproducibilidad, recidiva), como del paciente, con mínimas molestias y recuperación de la calidad de vida (AU)
Introduction: Subxiphoid incisional hernia has characteristics that differentiate it from the rest and make it a distinctive entity. The fact that it has its sac very near the rib cage and sternum determines the pressure in the margins. The repair, by open or by laparoscopic approach, has not demonstrated good results despite the generalised use of a prosthesis. They are uncommon, and have a significant comorbidity in patients (severe heart diseases, transplants, immunosuppressed), after surgery of the hepato-bilio-pancreatic area with transverse incisions, or very high mid-laparotomies for gastro-oesophageal surgery. Material and methods: A new technique has been developed in our Unit, based on a double mesh and adapted to the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the region. The series consisted of 35 consecutive patients operated on between 2004 and 2010, following anagreed surgical and management protocol. Results: There were no significant complications -the most frequent (17.4%) was a seroma exceptone case of a wound infection due to skin is chaemia in one patient who had had multiple operations and a transplant. During the post-surgical follow up to the present(between 4 and 80 months), there has been no recurrence of the incisional hernia and no significant local discomfort has been reported. Conclusions: The «adjusted double mesh» technique achieved good results in our hands, from the surgical point of view (reproducibility, recurrence), and for the patient, with minimal discomfort and recovery of quality of life (AU)
