- Abstract
We present the case of a 64 years old man, who was admitted in our surgical clinic with a giant median incisional hernia after a previously colonic resection and anastomosis for a colonic tumor. We had to deal with a loss of domain giant ventral hernia. The patient was known with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic coughing, that was an aggravating condition. We did an alloplasty in Rives-Stoppa manner, accompanied by an anterior component separation. The clinical postoperative outcome was very good and we present the results.
