Wall Defect

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a common soft tissue sarcoma usually involving limbs and retroperitoneum. MFH of the rectus abdominis muscle is extremely rare. Surgery in similar cases leads to large abdominal wall defects needing reconstruction. Biological and synthetic laminar absorbable prostheses are available for the repair of hernia defects in the abdominal wall. They share the important feature of being gradually degraded in the host, resulting the formation of a neotissue. We herein report the case of an 84-year-old man with MFH of the rectus abdominis muscle which was resected and the large abdominal wall defect was successfully repaired with a biological mesh.

Mesh Skin Graft

Microvascular free muscle transfer utilizing the rectus abdominis muscle, in combination with a mesh skin graft and transarticular external fixator, were used following the surgical excision of an elbow hygroma in a Newfoundland dog. Postoperatively, the dog did well with minimal complications and has yet to have a recurrence 10 months following surgery. This report describes the utility and successful use of the rectus abdominis free tissue transfer in the surgical correction of a difficult elbow hygroma in the dog.
