How Abdominal Reconstruction Works
The surgical plan depends on the nature and severity of the defect. Techniques may include component separation (releasing muscle layers to allow tension-free closure), use of biologic or synthetic mesh, flap reconstruction (e.g. TRAM or DIEP flaps), and skin grafting.
In cancer or trauma cases, abdominal reconstruction is often performed in collaboration with general surgeons, oncologists, or gastrointestinal specialists. The goals are to:
Reconstruct abdominal wall integrity and function
Prevent recurrence of hernias or bulging
Restore core stability and patient comfort
Improve aesthetics where possible
Careful pre-operative planning, including imaging and multidisciplinary input, is often required for complex cases.
Conditions Commonly Treated
Abdominal wall hernias (particularly recurrent or large incisional hernias)
Post-surgical tissue loss following cancer excision
Abdominal trauma or wound complications
Congenital abdominal wall defects
Loss of muscle or skin after infection or failed repairs
