Abstract

The number of patient with burst abdomen increased with an increase in the number of risk factors , reaching 100 % for patients with 8 or more risk factors . The risk factors of burst abdomen can be predicted early and their number can be decreased before and after surgery by an experienced surgeon , leading to a lowered incidence of wound failure. The principles which should be considered during the reconstruction of the anterior abdominal wall including-The superiority of tension-free repair versus primary suture repair for the larger defects. The need for vascularized tissue to provide coverage of the fascial repair. The advantage of a functional reconstruction in terms of abdominal wall mechanics and the effect on pulmonary function. Anterior rectus sheath and Abdominal wall component separation technique is better than mesh. The efficacy of a multi-disciplinary approach to abdominal wall reconstruction, decreasing the incidence of recurrent hernia.
