title: [Laparoscopic repair of giant incisional hernia after abdominal wall reconstruction].
abstract: Laparoscopic repair of giant incisional hernias, traditionally treated using the open technique with abdominal wall reconstruction, represents a development in the operative method with fewer peri- and post-operative complications. The authors present a patient with a giant incisional hernia after primary right hemipelvic chondrosarcoma and pelvic resection. The patient was treated with laparoscopic repair, in which a large prolene mesh was implanted, and the patient had an uncomplicated post-operative course.
