Abstract: The aim of this study was to develop an experimental model of incisional hernia in rabbits. Thirty seven rabbits, weighing from 2220 to 2750 g, were submitted to musculoaponeurotic and peritoneum pattern resection of the abdominal wall and distributed in groups of 10 animals according to the postoperative time of 30, 45 or 60 days. The animals were submitted to reoperation at the end of the observation period. In the three groups were observed hernias larger than 60 and 45 cm in transversal and longitudinal me… Show more

“…The defect area after three weeks ranged from 32.1±5.5 to 35.6±3.1 squared centimeters and was similar to other reports that made only the acute full-thickness defect with areas ranging from 35 to 40 squared centimeters 9,10,18,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] . The hypothetic advantage of our model was to simulate the surgical findings in the human hernia repair.…”

“…A brief review of five years on electronic data base of biomedical literature (Medline and Pubmed) showed thirty seven reports with rats, nineteen with rabbits, five with pigs or mini pigs, three with guinea-pigs, three with dogs, two with mice and no one with sheep or goats. Except for reports of one research group 16,17,[20][21][22] in rats and another one in rabbits 18 , almost all studies on wound healing and scar formation, using or not the different types of mesh, are based on the promotion of an acute full-thickness abdominal wall defect that is immediately repaired by a mesh and/or a surgical technique.…”

“…Modelos experimentais de hérnia incisional tem sido descritos em coelhos, cães e ovelhas. [29][30][31][32] Reith 33 e Franke 34 produziram hérnias abdominais em ratos, retirando um fragmento da parede abdominal e reparando-as com prótese. Este modelo de hérnia abdominal em ratos tem sido usado por vários autores para estudo de correção de hérnia incisional com diferentes tipos de próteses, imediatamente após o defeito ser produzido.…”
