Case Report: Abdominal Wall Reconstruction in a High-Risk Patient With Incisional Hernia and Complications From Oncological Treatment.

A high risk patient with evisceration underwent to abdominal wall reconstruction without mesh or drains. We present a case of a 62 years-old female patient with a significant medical history of Wilson's disease-related hepatopathy Child-Pugh class B classification, sequelae of a stroke, and relevant surgical background including total hysterectomy, oophorectomy, and Hartmann's procedure for ovarian neoplasm stage 3. The patient developed a large incisional hernia in the midline incision while undergoing Bevacizumab (Avastin) treatment for clinical oncology.

INTERNAL HERNIA FOLLOWING LAPAROSCOPIC ROUX-EN-Y GASTRIC BY-PASS: INDICATIVE FACTORS FOR EARLY REPAIR.

Background: Internal hernia (IH) following laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is a major complication that challenges the surgeon due to its non-specific presentation and necessity of early repair. Delayed diagnosis and surgical intervention of IH might lead to increased morbidity of patients and impairments in their quality of life.

Objective: To evaluate the predictive factors for early diagnosis and surgical repair of IH after LRYGB.
