“…No widely accepted definition of loss of domain exists; however, a commonly utilized definition is that more than 50% of visceral contents are lying chronically beyond the bounds of the abdomen (figure 6). 76 When planning an operative approach, the surgeon should consider the size of the defect, the amount of release that will be required, the degree of contamination, patient comorbidities, the setting (emergent or elective), and the hospital's ability to care for this patient. The durability of the repair should be carefully considered given the context; less complicated, albeit less durable repairs, may be preferable in emergency cases.…”

“…CVH describes large, anterior, incisional hernias (alternatively known as “giant” ventral hernias). Ventral hernia follows 20% of laparotomies, resulting in a 5% lifetime risk [1]. Incidence is growing rapidly due to rising laparotomy rates in increasingly older, obese and co-morbid patients.…”

“…Large hernias decrease abdominal wall elasticity, and cause muscular atrophy and diaphragmatic descent. Forceful return of viscera to the abdominopelvic cavity can precipitate cardiorespiratory impairment or abdominal compartment syndrome [1]. …”

“…5). Antes de colocar estos puntos deben ubicarse los drenajes aspirativos (normalmente dos) por delante de la malla y en las porciones inferolaterales de la reparación, sobre todo si quedan espacios insuficientemente cerrados durante el cierre de la herida (4,23). Debido a la medialización sustancial de los músculos rectos conseguida por la liberación de los músculos transversos del abdomen y por la tensión «fisiológica» obtenida por la fijación de la malla, se finaliza casi siempre con el cierre fascial sobre la malla a modo de capa adicional de «protección» frente a la ISQ o a la exposición de malla (21).…”
