Discussion: Minimally invasive component separation with inlay bioprosthetic mesh (MCSIB) for complex abdominal wall reconstruction.

摘要

Complex abdominal wall reconstruction requires answering two independent and related questions: What is the best way to treat the abdominal wall, and what is the best way to treat the skin? Butler and Campbell present their solutions to these two problems in their article entitled "Minimally Invasive Component Separation with Inlay Bioprosthetic Mesh for Complex Abdominal Wall Reconstruction." Although I will bring up several technical questions and issues to help think critically about the procedure, I am fundamentally in agreement with its central tenets.
