“…Patients should be promptly covered and actively warmed upon arrival in the operating room; even mild hypothermia has been shown to disrupt clotting and increase postoperative infection rates [ 175 ]. Specific attention must be posed on patients with primary immunodeficiency syndromes as Ig infusion must be considered [ 176 , 177 ]. The dose of immunosuppressive drugs in transplanted patients should be continued postoperatively.…”

Acute abdomen in the immunocompromised patient: WSES, SIS-E, WSIS, AAST, and GAIS guidelines

Immunocompromised patients are a heterogeneous and diffuse category frequently presenting to the emergency department with acute surgical diseases. Diagnosis and treatment in immunocompromised patients are often complex and must be multidisciplinary. Misdiagnosis of an acute surgical disease may be followed by increased morbidity and mortality. Delayed diagnosis and treatment of surgical disease occur; these patients may seek medical assistance late because their symptoms are often ambiguous. Also, they develop unique surgical problems that do not affect the general population. Management of this population must be multidisciplinary.This paper presents the World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES), Surgical Infection Society Europe (SIS-E), World Surgical Infection Society (WSIS), American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST), and Global Alliance for Infection in Surgery (GAIS) joined guidelines about the management of acute abdomen in immunocompromised patients.

“…In both cases, the prior cholecystectomy scar could have contributed to the incisional hernias extending into the falciform ligament [ 7 ]. Their combined smoking history in addition to primary hypogammaglobulinemia in the first patient and hepatitis C in the second patient put them at increased risk for impaired wound healing and hernia development [ 5 , 8 ].…”

Case series of two falciform ligament incisional hernias and their laparoscopic repair

Incisional hernias involving the falciform ligament have only been reported in two case reports in the English literature. This is the first reported case series of two falciform ligament incisional hernias. Both patients had undergone a prior cholecystectomy. Laparoscopic transabdominal pre-peritoneal repair was performed with an uneventful recovery in both patients. In the previously published reports both patients underwent an open herniorrhaphy with an underlay mesh repair. These are the first two documented laparoscopic repairs of a falciform ligament incisional hernia. The laparoscopic repair also included intra-corporeal suturing of the hernia necks with a non-absorbable suture. We extrapolated this data from the component separation technique which reconstituted the abdominal musculature in their normal anatomical position resulting in a reduced hernia recurrence rate.
