Outcomes on 287 Patients with Complex Abdominal Wall Defects Undergoing Abdominal Wall Reconstruction with a Porcine-Derived Acellular Matrix.

Introduction: Complex abdominal wall defects (CAWD) requiring complex abdominal wall reconstruction (CAWR) represent an important surgical challenge in the presence of significant comorbidities. We aimed to report the results on a large patient cohort and identify independent outcome predictors.

Materials And Methods: All patients who underwent CAWR with biologic mesh (Strattice™; Reconstructive Tissue Matrix ®, a porcine-derived acellular dermal matrix; Allergan plc, Branchburg, New Jersey) between July 2016 and November 2021 at the tertiary academic center were studied using univariable and multivariable regressions.
