Biomechanics of the front abdominal wall as a potential factorleading to recurrence with laparoscopic ventral hernia repair
Abstract
This study investigated the front abdominal wallto describe its elasticity in vivo and searched for elongationsthat possibly stretched an implanted mesh, therebycausing fixation failure and subsequent recurrence.To measure front abdominal wall elongations, amodel of fascia movements was created. Eight healthyvolunteers were measured during exercise to determine theextent of elongations in their front abdominal wall. Videoswere analyzed in three positions to create a mathematicalshell structure. A computerized model based on the netmovement of nodes was calculated to determine the axesand values for maximum elongations.
