Abstract
The authors report an original case of a 70-year-old male with large musculocutaneous necrosis area of the abdominal wall following a long ischemic compression. Initial treatment was done using a wide excision of the abdominal wall necrosis and insertion of synthetic prosthesis to protect bowels. After 4 weeks of further surgical revisions, two splits thickness skin grafting were performed. The grafts were placed directly on granulations around and over the mesh and the healing was complete. Postoperative course was uneventful. In our experience, this technique allowed a good cicatrisation and a good esthetical result.
