Background Abdominal wall reconstruction in high-risk and contaminated cases remains a challenging surgical dilemma. We report long-term clinical outcomes for a rifampin-/minocycline-coated acellular dermal graft (XenMatrix™ AB) in complex abdominal wall reconstruction for patients with a prior open abdomen or contaminated wounds. Methods Patients undergoing abdominal wall reconstruction at our institution at high risk for surgical site occurrence and reconstructed with XenMatrix™ AB with intent-to-treat between 2014 and 2017 were included. Demographics, operative characteristics, and outcomes were collected. The primary outcome was hernia recurrence. The secondary outcomes included length of stay, surgical site occurrence, readmission, morbidity, and mortality. Results Twenty-two patients underwent abdominal wall reconstruction using XenMatrix™ AB during the study period. Two patients died while inpatient from progression of their comorbid diseases and were excluded. Sixty percent of patients had an open abdomen at the time of repair. All patients were from modified Ventral Hernia Working Group class 2 or 3. There were a total of four 30-day infectious complications including superficial cellulitis/fat necrosis (15%) and one intraperitoneal abscess (5%). No patients required reoperation or graft excision. Median clinical follow-up was 38.2 months with a mean of 35.2 +/− 18.5 months. Two asymptomatic recurrences and one symptomatic recurrence were noted during this period with one planning for elective repair of an eventration. Follow-up was extended by phone interview which identified no additional recurrences at a median of 45.5 and mean of 50.5 +/−12.7 months. Conclusion We present long-term outcomes for patients with high-risk and contaminated wounds who underwent abdominal wall reconstruction reinforced with XenMatrix™ AB to achieve early, permanent abdominal closure. Acceptable outcomes were noted.

Sixty-one wrists in 61 patients with osteoarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint treated by three consecutive procedures (20 Darrach, 25 Sauvé-Kapandji and 16 hemiresection-interposition arthroplastic procedures) were retrospectively evaluated. We preferred to perform Darrach's procedure in even the early stages of osteoarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint prior to introduction of Sauvé-Kapandji and hemirestion-interposition arthroplastic procedures. Subsequently the hemirestion-interposition arthroplasty was indicated when the triangular fibrocartilage cartilage was intact or could be reconstructed and the Sauvé-Kapandji when the triangular fibrocartilage complex could not be reconstructed or there was positive ulnar variance of more than 5 mm even though the triangular fibrocartilage complex was functional. Patient's age at operation averaged 59.8 years. There were 36 men and 25 women. There were 38 primary and 23 secondary osteoarthritis cases. Post-operative pain, range of motion, grip strength, return to work status; and radiographic results were evaluated. At the five- to 14-year (average, ten years) follow-up evaluation, relief of pain from Darrach procedure was inferior to the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure and hemiresection-interposition arthroplasty although this was not statistically significant. After both the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure and hemiresection-inteposition arthroplasty, post-operative improvements in flexion and extension of the wrist had statistical significance. Post-operative improvements in pronation and supination of the forearm showed statistical significances after all procedures. Improvements of post-operative grip strength and return to an original job in the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure and hemiresection-interposition arthroplasty were statistically superior to those with a Darrach's procedure. There were many post-operative complications following the Darrach's procedure. Darrach's procedure is better indicated for severe osteoarthritic changes of the distal radioulnar joint in elderly patients. We believe the operative indications between the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure and hemiresection-interposition arthroplasty are best determined prior to surgery by the existence and status of the triangular fibrocartilage complex and the amount of the positive ulnar variance.
