title: [Anterior desinsertion of the transversus abdominalis in the prosthetic treatment of major eventrations].
abstract: An original procedure is suggested for the prosthetic treatment of major incisional hernias: transversus abdominalis muscle desinsertion. The aim is to create an opening between two cleavage planes which are the underperitoneal space externally and the posterior face of the rectus abdominalis muscle internally. The single space thus created allows the wide implantation of a subperitoneal Mersilene prosthesis which is isolated from the viscera as well as from the skin. A strong abdominal wall is then reconstituted. Ten patients were operated upon using this technique with excellent results in all cases.
