Abstract
- ObjectivesOpen abdomen (OA) treatment is sometimes necessary after surgery for aortic aneurysm (AA), to prevent or treat abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS). A multicentre study evaluating vacuum-assisted wound closure (100–150 mmHg) and mesh-mediated fascial traction (VAWCM) was performed.MethodsAll patients treated with OA after AA repair (2006–2009) were prospectively registered at four centres; those treated
