Summary
An extensive 35 _ 20 cm sized full-thickness abdominal wall defect was created after resection of aggressive abdominal fibromatosis in a 19-year-old male patient. Immediate reconstruction was not possible due to prolonged operation time and resulting severe bowel edema. The purpose of this study is to introduce our experience of extensive full-thickness abdominal wall reconstruction using only ipsilateral deep inferior epigastric vessels.
