Popis: |
Pedicled omentoplasty is frequently used in chest reconstruction and treatment of sternal infection. The procedure is effective, but it is associated with several postoperative complications. The authors describe a 49-year-old man in whom sternal infection after heart surgery was successfully treated by sternectomy and omentoplasty. Several months later, the transverse colon herniated into the transposed omentum. To the authors' knowledge, this complication has not been previously reported. |
