| Popis: | Background: In our tertiary care hospital, we receive a large number of acute abdomen cases. Raised intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) makes laparostomy mandatory initially and abdominal wall approximation cannot be completed due to compromised state in most cases. Large incisional hernias were seen on complete healing and this study was done to see the feasibility of component separation technique (CST) with mesh augmentation.Methods: 30 patients were subjected to CST with mesh augmentation. Preoperative defect size mapping, Pre- and post-operative monitoring of IAP were done. Pain scoring by visual analogue scale (VAS), early and late complications was noted. Patients were followed up for 60 months.Results: CST with mesh augmentation was found to be feasible with 96.77% success rate as no recurrence was noted in follow up. Preoperative average Basal metabolic index was 26.09. Size of defect varied from 17-20×9-16 cm2 (length X width). Seroma seen in 50% of patients was managed without any intervention. Skin necrosis in 6.6% and wound dehiscence in 3.33%, managed with minimal debridement & local wound care respectively. Respiratory compromise and hematoma were not seen and no patient required any active ICU care. Average length of hospital stay was 5.22 days. Close monitoring of IAP in immediate post-operative period was found to be significant.Conclusion: Physical acceptance of stable abdominal wall gives a psychological boost to patients with early recovery in form of ambulation and early return to work. |
